The rise of digital currencies—including central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and cryptocurrencies—is revolutionizing global finance. Over 130 countries are exploring or implementing CBDCs, while cryptocurrencies continue to reshape the nature of money, value storage, and payment systems.
For the Islamic finance industry, these innovations raise profound questions:
Are cryptocurrencies permissible under Shari’ah?
How can CBDCs be aligned with Islamic financial principles?
What are the economic, ethical, and social implications for Islamic economies?
Recognizing the critical importance of these discussions, IBS, with support from its international partners, is launching a 3-day specialized workshop to equip scholars, regulators, financial institutions, and fintech leaders with the knowledge needed to navigate this digital frontier in light of Shari’ah principles.
