As global economic challenges, inequalities, and debt burden continue to plague developing nations, Beyond IMF presents a compelling solution through Islamic financial principles. This insightful book offers a transformative approach to achieve economic independence and prosperity for the Muslim world. It draws upon historical concepts like Mu’akhat and explores modern financial tools such as Waqf (endowments) and Zakat to create sustainable financial structures.
The book provides a thorough critique of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), analyzing its historical role and highlighting the urgent need for an alternative financial system rooted in Islamic values. Through models like the Muslim Common Waqf (MCW) and Pakistan’s National Common Waqf Pool (NCWP), it presents practical solutions for investment, governance, and technology that can pave the way for greater financial autonomy within the Muslim world.
Ultimately, Beyond IMF offers more than a critique—it is a visionary guide to building a fairer, more sustainable economic future for Islamic countries, grounded in justice, self-reliance, and innovation.
