The essence of every industry and company lies within finance. Due to the great influence from globalisation, Islaamic finance has grown exponentially in recent times. This has caused a great influx of interest in the subject. It is a vital issue since it highlights an aspect that is a part of every individual’s daily livelihood; money.
