Unlike other forms of Islamic philanthropy, zakat is mandated and compulsorily levied on every high-net-worth Muslim. Its primary goal is to serve as a tool to provide for the basic needs of the poor and the needy. Traditionally, most Muslim societies have viewed zakat as a purely religious matter. In such countries, zakat is managed entirely by the state apparatus dealing with religious affairs of its people. In some other countries with secularism as the avowed policy, the state sees no role for itself in religious matters and leaves the same to individuals and non-state actors. In yet another set of countries, the state sees the importance of a proactive role for itself in zakat management even while the task of zakat collection and distribution remains in the private domain. These countries have witnessed an increasing integration of zakat with the financial system. This paper hypothesizes that the regulatory framework for zakat management has an important bearing upon the mobilization of such funds and their utilization for alleviation of poverty. Using the concept of “goodness of laws” it undertakes a comparative analysis of the 29 sets of zakat laws as they exist in eight countries across the globe and seeks to delineate the “core principles” that should form the basis of legal and regulatory reforms that are necessary to strengthen the sector","PeriodicalId":269513,"journal":{"name":"Islamic Law & Law of the Muslim World eJournal","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121209937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are some elementary references to confidentiality of patients’ health information in select voluntary guidelines, and charters of provincial level statutory bodies, which are assessed in this article as to their sufficiency or not. \u0000Policy makers in Pakistan need to acknowledge that health information can include some of the most intimate details about a person’s life. It can include a patient’s physical and mental health, and can also include information on social behaviours, personal relationships, and financial status. \u0000If privacy of health information is disrespected then the individuals whose health information is inappropriately shared/accessed can face a number of potential harms. The unauthorized disclosure of health information may cause intrinsic harm simply because that private information is known by others. Another potential danger is economic harm. Victims of breach could lose their job, health insurance, or housing if the wrong type of information becomes public knowledge. Victims of breach could also experience social or psychological harm.","PeriodicalId":269513,"journal":{"name":"Islamic Law & Law of the Muslim World eJournal","volume":"134 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132700453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, it answered the following: a) principles and prohibitions, b) traditions and practices; and c) global challenges and opportunities. The Islamic Finance was embraced by the Muslims in the Arab world for the purpose of lending money to others for their start-up capital or for other personal needs. The general concept of Islamic Finance it is based on Shariya Law prohibits imputing a fixed rate of interest; acceptance of fees or charges on loans is called Riba or usury. The practice of usury or charging of interest on loans is contrary to the Islamic principles of the Muslims called haraam or forbidden. This ideology was adopted by the Islamic banking, financial institutions, and non-profit organizations within the Muslim community. It is an Islam dogma forbidding lending out money with interest rate. The Islamic rules on transactions are provided for in the Fiqh al-Muamalat. Monies lent out earn benefits through profit and loss sharing of Islamic financing which is commonly called as Mudharabah in Arabic. Wadiah is the Islamic term for safekeeping. Musharakah is a joint venture of any particular business in the Arab countries. Murabahah refers to cost plus contract, and ljar for finance lease. The financial systems in the Arab countries operate under the provisions of the Shariah Law. Therefore, Shariah Law in the legal point of view are more focused on banking industry, micro financing, entrepreneurship, politics, economics, as well as religion as the bottom line of this Islamic law, and considers the guiding principle of the Muslims in the real life situation (Silva, 2006). Hence, this article is based on qualitative-quantitative research approach of investigation.","PeriodicalId":269513,"journal":{"name":"Islamic Law & Law of the Muslim World eJournal","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133248805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
