Assalamualaikum wbt,
INCEIF University has always aspired to be the reference point and knowledge leader in Islamic finance regionally and globally. Despite the periodical lockdown, INCEIF continues to improve the quality of our academic programmes, coupled with active and aggressive research efforts by our faculty members.
We are honoured to have Prof. Dr. Shamsher Mohamed and Prof. Dr. Zulkarnain Mohd Sori share their thoughts on the impact on emerging and developing economies post-COVID-19 pandemic in the “In Person” column. We also have our dedicated Emeritus Prof. Dato Dr. Ariff discussing how to take Islamic banking to the next level under the “From Faculty’s Table” column. Beside Prof. Ariff, we have Dr. Ziyaad Mahomed writing on the overview of zakat in Central Asia. Lastly, we are honoured to have our postdoctoral fellow, Dr. Shinaj Valangattil, who wrote on a conceptual framework for the MSME sector in his article titled “Covid-19 and MSME Resilience: Time to Tighten the Nexus between For-Profit and Non-Profit Oriented Organisation.”
Last but not least, our gratitude goes to all the contributors who have played key roles in making this issue of IF HUB a reality, both directly and indirectly. We would also like to thank the readers for the feedback provided.
