Shari'ah Council
A Shari'ah Council is a governing body that ensures financial and business practices comply with Islamic law (Shari'ah). Typically found in banks and financial institutions, it consists of qualified Islamic scholars who review products, services, and transactions. Their role is to provide guidance, approve Shari'ah-compliant offerings, and ensure ethical standards are upheld, fostering trust among Muslim customers and maintaining adherence to Islamic principles in financial dealings.
