Research Aim: Islamic finance is usually considered a system that does not directly benefit the people. Many experts believe that Islamic finance is interest-free only on the surface but applies interest as ‘hidden charges’ or renames the term ‘interest.’

 While this holds for a few financial institutions, the bigger picture might be a little different. Islamic finance is interest-free and can run successfully if appropriately and implemented accurately, as many Islamic researchers claimed.

 This research will provide an in-depth analysis of how successful Islamic finance has been, how it works interest-free, and how people benefit from it. The research will also negate notions of Islamic finance, i.e. the system is not interest-free. Moreover, the thesis will investigate how the system works concerning Islamic teachings and how people benefit from them.
