In the context of rapid global changes in the environment, society, and economy, Values-Based Finance has the potential to realign Islamic finance back toward the maqāṣid al-sharīʿah - the higher objectives of the shari'ah, and maqāṣid-based Islamic financial institutions can drive the transition to sustainable development by integrating the teachings and principles of Islam with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to make a measurable difference for people and planet. It takes Islamic finance through banking, capital markets, sukuk, takaful, fintech, and social finance in nine chapters, interspersed with theorization, policy recommendations, and best practices, all with an eye towards how ethical finance can deliver inclusive prosperity and long-term sustainability across the board.
