Dear Friends and Colleagues, Alhmadullah, I am pleased to announce the* recent publication *of my *new book *(co-authored with Azhar Hamid) titled, *"Foundations of Shariah Governance of Islamic Banks." * The book, which is a result of approximately 5 years of research, has been published by John Wiley & Sons (U.K.) and can be found at: www.wiley.com/buy/9781118460771 The book is meant to addresses a gap in the literature on *shariah* governance. It has been written for both scholars as well as practitioners. In fact, it presents practical tools such as a shariah governance manual and shariah audit checklists that could be adapted to serve the needs of individual banks. It also analyzes laws and regulations on the topic in a number of international jurisdictions. The key research questions addressed by this publication are as follows: • How does sharī‘ah relate to Islamic finance? • Why is sharī‘ah compliance of Islamic banks important and what risks do these institutions face when their transactions violate the rules of Islamic transactional jurisprudence? • Are directors and senior managers of Islamic banks responsible for sharī‘ah compliance? If so, what are their responsibilities? • What is sharī‘ah governance and how does it relate to corporate governance? • Which entities play a role in administering sharī‘ah governance and what sort of activities may theyengage in? • How have regulatory bodies in different jurisdictions handled sharī‘ah governance issues and what are some examples of guidelines that they have issued? • What are some best practices that could be leveraged to advance the standardization of sharī‘ah governance of Islamic finance and limit the risks associated with this topic? • What internal regulations could help the sharī‘ah supervisory board and the internal sharī‘ah audit function become more efficient in their tasks? • What qualifications are necessary for those working as part of the sharī‘ah supervisory board and the internal sharī‘ah audit function? • What services do sharī‘ah advisory firms offer and is there a need to regulate their behavior? *Please feel free to share the book's website on social media in order for interested parties to benefit from this resource!* Thank you!
