Islampreneur is a media site about Islamic finance, entrepreneurship and investing, run by Impactedia as one of its media brands. This page explains how we choose stories, where our information comes from, how we handle claims about Shariah compliance, and how we correct mistakes.
What we publish
- News: deals, regulation and market moves, written from the announcement or filing itself.
- Insights: our reading of reports from regulators, standard-setters, rating agencies and researchers.
- Guides: plain explanations of how Islamic finance products and contracts work.
- Portraits and Organizations: profiles of scholars, bankers, founders and institutions, based on public records and what they publish about themselves.
How we source
Every figure, date and factual claim in an article links to where it comes from. We prefer primary sources, in this order:
- Official documents: central bank and regulator notices, annual reports, financial statements, stock exchange filings and sukuk prospectuses.
- Reports from standard-setters, multilateral institutions and rating agencies, cited by name and publication date.
- Established news organisations, when no primary source is available. We say so when a figure comes from press reporting.
When two credible sources give different figures, for example on the size of the Islamic finance market, we show both and explain the difference rather than picking one. We do not publish statistics, quotes, awards or rankings we cannot trace to a source.
Shariah compliance claims
We do not decide whether a product, fund or company is Shariah-compliant. When we describe something as Shariah-compliant, we say who certified it, such as the institution’s Shariah supervisory board or a named standard-setter, and link to their statement. When scholars or standard-setters disagree, we report the disagreement.
No religious rulings, no investment advice
Islampreneur does not issue fatwas and is not a financial adviser. Our articles give the facts a reader needs to understand a product or a market. They do not tell anyone what to buy, sell or hold. For a decision about your own money, speak to a qualified adviser, and for a religious question, consult a qualified scholar. Our Disclaimer sets this out in full.
Terms we explain
We define Arabic and technical terms such as murabaha, ijarah, sukuk or takaful the first time they appear in an article, so that readers new to Islamic finance can follow.
Updates
We review profiles and guides when the facts they rely on change, for example new annual results, a change of leadership or a new regulation, and update the article and its sources.
Corrections
If you find an error, tell us through our contact page and include a link to the source that shows the correct information. We check every report. When a correction changes a fact, figure or name, we fix the article and update its date.
Story tips and submissions
You can send us a report, an announcement or a funding opportunity through the contact page. Please include a link to the original source. We verify it before anything is published. You can read more about who we are on our About page.
