Description
'This is the first ever compilation of leading articles in the field of Islamic accounting from the path defining contribution of Abdel-Majd in 1981 to the most important articles by Rifaat Ahmed Abdel Karim, founder of AAOIFI and former Secretary General of the IFSB. The collection is an essential purchase for all university libraries with Islamic finance collections as well as business schools where financial reporting is considered from different cultural perspectives. The editors are to be congratulated on their efforts.'

This timely new collection presents the most significant English language contributions to the literature on Islamic accounting. Including more than thirty articles by some of the most important authors in the area, the book covers six major themes: the conceptual framework, accounting ethics and social responsibility, corporate reporting, accounting practice and zakat, auditing and the Islamic history of accounting.
Following the rapid growth of the Islamic financial system this book will be recommended reading for academics, students, researchers and practitioners interested in developing their understanding of this increasingly important area, and an essential purchase for libraries.
