Growth Anchored in Faith by Ainatul Aqilah Kamarudin, Jarita Duasa, Salina Kassim & Riasat Amin Imon

What if finance could be more than numbers and profit? What if it became a source of hope, a path to fairness, and a promise of dignity and shared prosperity? Imagine an economy where wealth is not only created, but also cared for, circulating with compassion, justice, and trust. Growth Anchored in Faith invites readers to reimagine the purpose of finance through the values of Islamic economics. With faith as its compass, this book shows how finance can serve people instead of markets, uplift communities instead of dividing them, and transform growth into something meaningful and lasting. Blending history, policy, and vision, it reflects on Malaysia’s journey in Islamic finance and the lessons it offers for a more just and inclusive future. More than an academic study, this book is a call to reconnect prosperity with purpose. It is for scholars, students, policymakers, and dreamers who believe that true growth is measured not by profit alone, but by the well-being of society and the mercy of the Divine.
