This book shows the influence of traditional Islamic law in modern legislation and, though not written from a strictly Islamic point of view, it shows how Islamic law endeavours to protect the interests of all parties to a contract.

Experts will find the references to Islamic banking of special interest. As business develops between East and West, no subject could be of greater topicality and economic importance.

This book is a translation from the original French book by Nayla Comair-Obeid, Les contrats en droit musulman des affaires, published by Economica, Paris, 1995.
