Sharjah Islamic Bank is one of the leading banks in the city that offers exceptional Islamic banking services. Sharjah Islamic Bank is designed particularly to meet the rising demands of clients who are interested in banking, according to the basic principles of Islam. Islamic banking is based on certain laws and rules, known as Shari’a, which owes its origin to the Quran. According to this system, consumers are not paid any interest on the principal sum. Islamic banking differs from traditional banking as more emphasis is laid on moral, religious and ethical principles, instead of focusing only on the financial and economic aspects of all transactions. However these banking services are in keeping with the standards of universal banking system. Previously Sharjah Islamic Bank was recognized under the name of National Bank of Sharjah. The aim of Sharjah Islamic Bank is to develop innovative and better Islamic banking services, to cater to the different needs of clients in Sharjah and the UAE.
