The application of Shariah compliance in business transactions continues to increase. The Asian financial crisis of 1997, global financial crisis of 2007–2008, Enron scandal and other reported ills besieging conventional business transactions have led to advocates of Shariah-compliant business transactions promoting the latter as a credible alternative. However, unlike the banking, commerce and financial sectors, the uptake by the construction sector was sluggish due to limited understanding of Shariah among the practitioners and policymakers compounded by the lack of research and publications on its application for the construction sector.

This book is intended for students, researchers, practitioners and policymakers of the construction industry as well as the related upstream and downstream activities. It offers basic theories, challenges current practices, and proposes innovative ideas on Shariah compliance and its application for the construction industry.

Readership: This book is intended for postgraduate students, researchers, policy makers, practitioners related to construction such as clients, quantity surveyors, architects, engineers, planners, project and construction managers, construction law experts, banking & financial experts.
Key Features:

  • Shariah in construction projects. There exist books on Shariah in general business transactions and construction projects/contracting in conventional world, but no book covers both
  • Shariah in international community. Shariah has been discussed among the Muslim community, but this book involves non-Muslim academics and practitioners. This implies the knowledge here is written commonly understandable for both Muslims and non-Muslims
  • Shariah in interdisciplinary context. Shariah has been discussed by Shariah lawyers from the religious and legal aspects. On the contrary, this book involves experts from different disciplines such as construction management and business, financiers and economics. Interdisciplinarity is a unique feature of this book
