摘要

小额信贷机构如今在全球南部地区拥有数亿客户，但穆斯林借款人和储蓄者的特殊需求却得不到满足，他们希望避免任何形式的固定利率。伊斯兰小额信贷的目的是向读者介绍伊斯兰教的信条，以及它们如何应用于小额信贷。它的问题是，当主流伊斯兰金融迅速发展的时候，为什么触及贫穷穆斯林客户的努力却如此落后?随着伊斯兰小额信贷的发展，它能保持其最初的公平、透明和分享的精神吗?这些原则似乎在传统小额信贷的世界里几乎被遗忘了。

Book Reports

Microfinance institutions are today reaching hundreds of millions of clients throughout the global South, but the special needs of Muslim borrowers and savers, who wish to avoid any form of fixed interest, are badly served. The purpose of Islamic Microfinance is to introduce readers to the tenets of Islam and how they are applied to microfinance. It questions why, when mainstream Islamic finance is growing rapidly, are efforts to reach poor Muslim customers so far behind? Can Islamic microfinance as it grows maintain its original spirit of fairness, transparency and sharing, principles that seem to have been almost forgotten in the world of conventional microfinance?
