English Abstract

ethics is one of the most needed in the market nowadays, this framework is a solution for Islamic financial institutions but can obviously be used for other organizations looking for ethical investments.

Since Islam (Shari„a in particular) is focusing on ethics, this framework is providing an answer to have an “Islamic” rating for businesses and is giving benchmark tools to compare corporate and different organizations in general.

One benefit of this framework is its general form, since it could on one hand be adapted to different interpretations of Maqasid Shari„a (Al Ghazali, Nejjar, Ibn Ashur…), and on another hand, it could also be personalized to the definition of sustainable development (economic, ecological and social objectives).

By the end of this paper, a case study is prepared to clarify the explained framework.
