Abstract

Because of its moral foundation respecting the precepts of Islam in terms of investment and investment funds, its ethical, religious and social dimension and its anchoring to the real economy, Islamic Finance gradually imposed itself as an interesting alternative to conventional financing, especially in a period of financial crisis that continues to spread. The development of this method of financing would not only help to diversify banking products, but also attract a new group of individuals and customers who are interested in Sharia-compliant products. This article is a refraction of the concepts of Islamic Finance already practiced by various countries, Arab, Asian, African and Western with Muslim communities. In the Tunisian context, the setting up of adequate structures to monitor the development of Islamic Finance is a good opportunity to propel the national economy and revive regional development.
