FOCUS

The INVEST Journal of Sharia and Economic Law is dedicated to fostering academic discourse that promotes the advancement of Sharia Economic Law. Our journal prioritizes the principles that aim to preserve human well-being and ensure socioeconomic justice. We provide a platform for scholarly work that contributes to global finance and economics discussions through the lens of the Sharia principles. Our primary principle is an unwavering commitment to integrating Sharia values and fostering innovative insights and solutions to current economic and social challenges. We achieve this through diverse methodologies including normative, empirical, and historical approaches, which enhance our analytical capabilities. We utilize normative methods, such as statutory, doctrinal, and case law approaches, to evaluate the legal framework in Islamic law. Additionally, we employ various methods of legal interpretation and analysis, such as the Philosophy/Maqashid Approach, the Historical Approach, and the Fiqh/Ijtihad Approach. These methodologies are essential for investigating the intricate workings of Sharia law and its implications for economic transactions, reflecting a comprehensive approach to understanding the ontological foundations of Islamic economic laws.

SCOPE

A fundamental element of our academic endeavors is the incorporation of Islamic Economics, Fiqh Muamalah, and Legal Studies. We invited research papers from scholars and practitioners in the following fields.

  1. Fiqh muamalah
  2. Islamic law
  3. Islamic philanthropy (zakat, waqf and infaq)
  4. Maqhasid Sharia
  5. Halal industry and services
  6. Islamic economics
  7. Islamic capital markets
  8. Risk management
  9. Alternative dispute resolution
  10. Financial systems, fintech and digital currency
  11. Theory of Islamic contracts
  12. Intellectual property right
  13. Fatwa and Islamic legal thought
  14. Consumer protection and ethics
  15. Islamic economic legal politics and legislation
  16. Halal food and tourism

This combination of disciplines forms the basis of Sharia Economic Law, providing a solid foundation that not only unites theoretical Islamic economic principles with practical applications, but also encourages interdisciplinary research. By merging legal theory, economics, and the Sharia principles into a cohesive framework, we can effectively address and navigate the complexities of contemporary economic systems.
