Islamic banking is different from modern day conventional banking that is based on the interest. Islam has its own principle of trade and profit sharing that ensure the zero involvement of interest or markup rate at all. In Islamic banking, banking activity is directly and indirectly based on the principles of Sharia or those rules and regulations not in conflict with Sharia Law, such as conventional good governance and risk management rules.
