Our Vision
Many businesses and individuals wish to apply the rules and principles of Islamic finance but lack the necessary knowledge to do so on their own.
Further, many people are not aware of the rich choices that Islamic finance offers them for their investments or deals. Our vision is to provide well-grounded guidance to businesses and individuals to comply with the rules and principles of Islamic finance in their financial decisions and structuring of their investments.
We also aim at increasing awareness and understanding of Islamic financial products among Muslims and non-Muslims. As suggested by our name “AlMajna”, which is in Arabic the place where you reap fruits, we invite people to reap the fruits of Islamic finance and Sharia-compliance in their business as well as their household deals.
