The Main Difference between Islamic and Conventional Banking

Islamic teaching says that money itself has no intrinsic value, and for bids people from profiting by lending it, without accepting a level of risk in other words, interest (known as "riba") cannot be charged. To make money from money is prohibited wealth can only be generated through legitimate trade and investment. Any gain relating to this trading is shared between the person providing the capital and the person providing the expertise

The Major Difference between Islamic and Conventional Banking

1. Conventional banking practices are concerned with "elimination of risk" where as Islamic banks" bear the risk" when involve in any transaction. 2. When Conventional banks involve in transaction they do not take the liability only get the benefit from consumer in form of interest whereas Islamic banks bear all the liability when involve in transaction .

 3. It is quite obvious that the main function of conventional banks is financial intermediation. However, there are those who would like to think that there is no such thing in the Islamic economic system as financial intermediation and that an Islamic bank can only be sufficiently Islamic if it can operate like a trader, one who buys and sells goods and commodities

4. A case in mind is Murabaha. There are those who say if an Islamic bank does Murabaha any other form but the traders way of doing things it will not be permissible from Shari'ah point of view, and an Islamic bank would be in their view a dubious conventional bank. They say: since it is never the intention of the bank, to own there assets and hold on to them then, such bank is not sufficiently Islamic.

5. The way conventional banks render financial intermediation is very simple. They borrow money and lend money. Both assets and liabilities are one form of lending. Islamic banking function in a rather elaborate (not perplexing) way. They have to continuously innovate to satisfy the needs of their clients. It is because of this we see Murabaha, Musharakah, Mudarabah, Istisnaa, Salam to name just a few Islamic modes of finance. This makes the job of an Islamic banker not all roses, but certainly a

6. A conventional banker is a risk manger. He is concerned with all kind of credit, market, interest rate, legal and other risk factors. An Islamic banker should be just as concerned. 7.Contrary to popular opinion, being concerned about time value of money is a similarity not a difference between Islamic and conventional banking.

8. A major difference, however, remains in the handling of delinquency and default. When a borrower delays payment of debt, interest will accrue on his delayed portion.This cant be done in Islamic banking as this is considered usurious.
