According to World Bank, Islamic finance has emerged as an effective tool for financing development worldwide, including non-Muslim countries, Islamic finance is a fast growing segment of the financial industry in many parts of the world. It has registered double-digit growth rates in the past decade despite challenging circumstances globally. Its reach and influence has expanded beyond the traditional Islamic markets with increasingly strong footholds in banking, takaful and the capital market.

Since 2008, Islamic banking has been growing at an estimated annual rate of 10-15% in non-Muslim countries such as the USA, Britain and France, as an ethical and sustainable alternative to the conventional, profit-driven banking system.
