    • Authors: M. Kabir Hassan; Aishath Muneeza; Adel M. Sarea (2021)

  • Dividend payout policy of Shariah compliant firms: evidence from United States

    • Authors: Zaheer Anwer; Shamsher Mohamad Ramadili Mohd; Andrea Paltrinieri; M. Kabir Hassan (2021)

  • This paper investigates the effects of religious screening on payout behavior of US firms. Shariah compliant (SC) indices serve as suitable sample as they are emerging as alternative investment class in the last two decades. Through an analysis of a sample of US firms belonging to Dow Jones proprietary database for the period 2006-2018, this study provides evidence that SC firms are more prone to make total payout, cash dividends and repurchases. We use panel logistic regressions with industry and year fixed effects. The findings reveal that the drivers of higher propensity of total payout are higher profitability, higher retained earnings, lower debt capital structure and lower asset...

  • Impact of COVID-19 on Islamic social finance

    • Authors: M. Kabir Hassan; Aishath Muneeza; Adel M. Sarea (2021)

  • COVID-19 is considered by some as a 'black swan event', which is a pandemic that is unpredictable, unprepared for, and totally spontaneous (Gubler, 2020). This pandemic is different from four other recent pandemics the world has witnessed within the last 25 years (Gubler, 2020) as its impact has created not only a health crisis, but has led to an economic as well as human crisis brought due to a halt in all major economic activities in the world. The impact of COVID-19 on the sudden increase of poverty is uncontainable. By 12 March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic, as, since December 2019, the disease had been spreading worldwide, putting the worl...

  • The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on Islamic finance: the lessons learned and the way forward

    • Authors: M. Kabir Hassan; Aishath Muneeza; Adel M. Sarea (2022)

  • This chapter explores the impact of the pandemic on Islamic commercial finance and Islamic social finance in a comprehensive manner. The chapter reveals that COVID-19 has provided more opportunities to Islamic social finance than Islamic commercial finance. The beauty of Islamic finance in this regard is reflected as the perception that Islamic finance does not achieve its objective as being a social finance is proved to be false as Islamic finance not only promotes profit maximization, but it has also the potential to achieve social objectives. Islamic commercial finance developments could be slower, but it is anticipated that Islamic social modes of financing will be used widely eve...

  • Internationalization of zakat to serve humanity in the midst of Covid-19: using international organizations as intermediaries of zakat

    • Authors: Jemilah Mahmood; M. Kabir Hassan; Aishath Muneeza (2022)

  • Zakat is an effective Islamic social financial tool that could be used to eliminate global poverty. The pandemic has turned back the world's poverty clock and as such, more work is required to bring equitable and shared prosperity to the world. International organizations that serve humanity could be used as intermediaries of zakat to reach out to those categories of legal recipients of zakat who are most deserved of such assistance, but who are unidentified and unreachable by the zakat organizations. This is with the ultimate objective of enhancing the effectivity of zakat as a social finance tool. However, using international organizations as zakat intermediaries is not a straightfo...

  • Towards a post-Covid global financial system lessons in social responsibility from Islamic finance

    • Authors: M. Kabir Hassan; Aishath Muneeza; Adel M. Sarea (2022)

  • The impact of Covid-19 has exposed major cracks in the global financial system and has severely undermined global financial stability. Never have the shortcomings of universal financialization - the dominant principle of the global financial system for the past thirty-odd years - been more obvious or more painful. Islamic finance provides ways forward: based on commercial and social modes of risk-sharing and financing, it offers radical structural solutions to the health, human and financial crises faced in this unprecedented time. In Towards a post-Covid global financial system lessons in social responsibility from Islamic finance, an international team of experts explore how Covid-1...
