Abstract: Academic and practitioner's research interest in studying Islamic economics and finance seems to have been growing over the past few years especially after the financial crisis that hit the global banking and financial system, which resulted in one of the severest economic slowdown that we have had for many years. This paper aims to introduce some of the key concepts relating to Islamic economics and finance, the increased interest in this field of study and then to identify the main differences to the modern economic and financial system. All the sections of this paper will be based on reviewing some of the literature that studied this growing stream of an economic and financial discipline.
