Islamic finance in Europe (27)

Continuation
The author writes that:
However, since classical times, Islamic law has leant itself to reconciling commercial development with religion.
A wide range of financial transactions were made possible in the Islamic low.
THE PROHIBITION OF GHARAR AND MAYSIR
Speculative transactions are deemed to involve a type of unjust increase.
Which is that increase prohibited by the Quran.
The underlying motivation is to ensure a fair correspondence between the:
§  expected benefits;
§  and obtained benefits
of both parties of a contract.

From the research paper of European Central Bank
