Abstract:
Research aims: This paper investigates whether Islamic windows have better stability than full-fledged Islamic banks.Design/Methodology/Approach: A sample of 14 Islamic banks and 19 Islamic windows banks in Indonesia from 2013 to 2018 was used in this study. Both ordinary least squares and panel fixed effects were employed to examine the stability of both Islamic banks’ types.Research findings: Our empirical result suggested that full-fledged Islamic banks were less stable than their Islamic windows counterparts. This result remained consistent after running the model with different estimators and conducting various robustness tests.Theoretical contribution/Originality: Our result implies that Islamic windows could enjoy their market position to maintain stability without converting themselves into full-fledged Islamic banks because the Islamic banking market's current condition is highly competitive.Practitioner/Policy implication: Our empirical evidence supports the Indonesian governments' policy in converting Islamic windows banks into full-fledged Islamic banks if the market's competitive condition is well monitored by the regulators.Research limitation/Implication: This research result is limited only to the Indonesian setting and can be different if the analysis is taken using a sample from other countries.

Abstract:
The article discusses a model of increasing the availability of financial services in the post-Soviet countries through the creation of Islamic windows that built into the structure of traditional financial organizations. This study does not discuss issues of Islamic law related to Islamic windows. The article is also not an introduction to Islamic banking. Instead, based on the evidence obtained mostly from Malaysia we show the evolution of the Islamic financial industry, one of the important stages of which was the launch of Islamic windows. We describe advantages and disadvantages of the Islamic window model, as well as the recent experience of other developing countries in adapting this model in their jurisdictions. The article aims to offer recommendations, including a system of strategic and operational decisions, for launching of Islamic windows, taking into account the innovative experience of Malaysia. In particular, a qualitative approach (literature review, content analysis, case studies, in-depth expert interviews) is used to identify problems and obstacles facing banking regulators and market participants in creating Islamic windows. The results of this study allowing to identify important details will be useful to participants and organizers of the Islamic financial market in the post-Soviet area. This study can also be used in the educational process as a reference material on Islamic financial practices that have developed in the world.

Abstract:
<p>The study aims to compare the knowledge of and preference for the Islamic banking window and the full-fledged Islamic bank among Muslim customers. Data were collected from 1171 banking clients. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis. The results show most Muslim customers do not know the difference between the full-fledged Islamic bank and the Islamic banking window. Yet, most Muslim customers favor the full-fledged Islamic bank to the Islamic windows since it is perceived to be more sharia compliant. Thus, the study theoretically contributes to Muslim banking behavior literature by providing empirical evidence on customer knowledge and preference in choosing an Islamic bank. Besides, the study provides knowledge to both the Islamic bank windows and full-fledged Islamic bank on the Muslim customers' understanding of both channels' availability.</p>

Abstract:
In the second half of the nineteenth century, there was a growing interest in Western countries for Islamic stucco glass windows, which were known from descriptions in books and as imported artifacts. Among the oldest publications is Émile Prisse d’Avennes’ (1807-1879) L’art arabe d’après les monuments du Kaire depuis le VIIe siècle jusqu’à la fin du XVIIIe. One year after its publication in 1877, its illustrations inspired the geometrical patterns of the windows of the Moroccan House, a neo-Moorish pavilion in the park of Linderhof Palace (Ettal, Germany).

Abstract:
Windows of Faith provides a space where Muslim women speak forthemselves and challenge rigidly traditionalist voices that have often hadhegemonic status in Islamic jurisprudential works regarding women. It is avolume that represents the voices of some of the most highly regardedMuslim women scholars and activists today. The book appears to cater toa primarily academic audience, and one that is familiar with the tradition ofIslamic feminism.In her introduction, Gisela Webb describes the overall approach ofthe contributors as challenging hegemonic discourse in many circles. Itchallenges: elements within the Muslim and the non-Muslim imaginationthat define Muslim women as mute victims; western feminist patriarchytoward Muslim women; and also the Muslim cultural patriarchy thatappropriates the sources of Islamic law and praxis yet, in the view of(probably all of) these women, has abandoned the essential Divineegalitarian purposes. Windows of Faith is a refreshing read, especiallydue to today’s urgent need to respond to the Qur’anic challenge: Do theynot reflect?In the first part (Qur’anic/rheological Foundations) Amina Wadud’spiece “Alternative Qur’anic Interpretation and the Status of MuslimWomen” explores neo-traditionalist and secular approaches towardalternative interpretation of the Qur’an regarding the status of women. Itis interesting to examine her comment, “Being anti-Western has becomea basis for legitimacy in ‘Islam’ ” against some of Maysam al-Faruqi’scomments in her chapter, which seem to dichotomize “Islamicness” withwesternness in the context of gender relations. In the second chapter“Muslim Women’s Islamic Higher Learning as a Human Right,” NimatBarazangi seeks, through an analysis of qualitative research with Muslimwomen, to develop an “action plan for the Muslim woman” in the postmodemera, “to regain her identification with Islam.” The need of the houris to “reinstate woman as an educational agent, both at home and at themosque one who herself will outline her priorities as a trustee entrustedwith changing history toward social justice.” Will we see womenas weil as men delivering khutaba and instituting policies in mosques ...

Abstract:
Purpose The concept of Islamic banking (IB) as a discipline and the introduction of the full-fledged Islamic banks and Islamic windows are relatively newer developments in the banking sector in Oman. This paper aims to assess customers’ perceptions of the Islamic banks and IB windows in Oman. Design/methodology/approach Following the interpretive paradigm and an exploratory research design, data collected through personal interviews with a group of 60 respondents in two of the prominent cities in Oman were analysed qualitatively. Findings The study found that customers in Oman had mixed feelings about the Islamic Banks. While some of them were not sure if the banks follow the Islamic principles, a majority of them had not opened an account with the Islamic banks or Islamic windows. The study revealed some vulnerabilities in the areas of their operations, marketing practices, staff knowledge of products and customer-dealings, as well as customers’ understanding of Islamic banks, their principles and practices. Practical implications As the advent of IB is relatively new to Oman, the insights gained by this study will have wider implications for the growth of IB locally. The outcomes of this study would appraise the officials and regulators of Islamic banks and Islamic windows with customers’ perception of IB. The elimination of the identified weaknesses would help them to improve the knowledge, quality and the marketing and promotion of products and services while competing with the conventional banks. Originality/value This study is a pioneering effort to know the status of IB and customers’ motivations in Oman towards IB.

Abstract:
Little is known about when and where hybrid organizations diffuse. We argue that neo-institutional perspectives, which stress the constraining role of market categories and institutional logics, have to be complemented with demand-side perspectives that stress the enabling force of economic incentives to explain the origins of hybrids. We develop theory to predict the country-level diffusion of hybrid forms in Islamic banking in the 1975–2017 period, during which many conventional banks invaded the domain of Islamic banking by starting to sell Islamic banking services, or so-called “Islamic windows.” Our findings underscore the relevance of simultaneously studying the impact of constraining and enabling forces. Consistent with neo-institutional theory, we find strong evidence that a lack of constitutive legitimacy of the window form—only in countries where Muslims make up a large share of the population—and the ideological polarization of local audiences reify the ideological boundaries between the oppositional banking logics, which in turn hampers the diffusion of windows in the focal country. At the same time, however, it appears that the failure of local credit markets and country-level economic globalization, the latter even more in countries with a Muslim majority, provide potent economic incentives for the diffusion of windows. By stressing the role of utilitarian incentives and material exchange as drivers of hybridization, we bridge the gap between neo-institutional and more rationalist approaches of institutional change.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficiency of two different banking systems operating in Egypt (Islamic versus conventional banks). A sample of 35 banks has been used to examine the technical efficiency before and after the financial crisis using data envelopment analysis model. Evaluating the technical efficiency of Egyptian banks will enable policymakers to support which banking system is more efficient to facilitate the financial inclusion and enhance the economic development.Before the financial crisis, conventional banks outperformed conventional banks with Islamic windows and Islamic banks, scale technical efficiency outperformed pure technical efficiency when analyzing conventional banks and conventional banks with Islamic windows. In terms of Islamic banks, pure efficiency outperformed scale efficiency. After the financial crisis, technical efficiency of all banks decreased. However, pure technical efficiency of Islamic banks has improved as a result of the quality of management and outperformed both conventional banks and conventional banks with Islamic windows. These results imply that Islamic banks have not been affected by the financial crisis. Therefore, the increased adoption and support of the Islamic banks in Egypt is addressed to develop the economy and push forward entrepreneurship projects, support the financial inclusion and the informal economy integration.

Abstract:
Research on consumers’ attitude on shop window displays is still a sphere that lacks attention from researchers in the field of consumer behaviour. Moreover, one of the most upcoming research fields recently is Islamic marketing field. Thus, this work is focused on the research of Saudi Arabia consumers’ attitudes on international brands shop window displays. For this purpose the questionnaire was created and spread out in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. There were 61 respondents who answered the questionnaire. Collected results were analysed using mix of qualitative and quantitative methods. Analysis showed that international brands make adjustments of shop window displays in Saudi Arabia. To add more, and most important, local consumers are willing to have more internationalised shop window displays with less cultural adaptation.

Beser, Elif. "Archaeometrical Investigation Of Some Medieval Glass Samples From Alanya Region." Master's thesis, METU, 2009. http://etd.lib.metu.edu.tr/upload/12611212/index.pdf.

Full text
Abstract:
The archaeological questions of historical glass have lead to remarkable research activities such as identification and sourcing the raw materials used in the glass production, investigations of the ways in which the colors of glass can be modified due to dissolved and/or colloidal coloring agents, the furnace conditions, and the time of fritting and melting. Considering publications, it can be suggested that compositional studies of well-dated glass samples have supplied useful information concerning raw materials&rsquo
characteristics and technology of glassmaking. Within this context, the aim of this study was to determine elemental compositions and production techniques of some 13th century Seljukian Period window glasses from Alanya excavation region. During the excavations at Alanya archaeological site involving Inner Castle and out of Inner Castle many glass pieces of varying colors have been found. In this study 25 samples from the area have been examined. Elemental analyses have been carried out using X-Ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (XRF) to determine major, minor, and trace elements. The data v obtained by XRF has revealed that all samples have typical soda-lime-silica composition with the average values of, 68.22 % (SiO2)
11.3 % (Na2O)
and 6.7 % (CaO). Hierarchical Cluster analysis has been employed and the samples have been grouped depending on their potassium oxide (K2O) and magnesium oxide (MgO) contents which indicate the probable alkali flux source. The colors of the samples are honey-yellow, brown-yellow, navy blue, blue, turquoise, purple, and green. The coloring agents have been determined as Fe, Cu, Co, and Mn. The data from Optical Microscopy has shown that most of the window glasses might have been produced by cylinder technique. Some other samples have revealed the signs of crown technique, and some might have been produced by casting.

Abstract:
There have been many deadly terrorist attacks which have taken place in the 21st Century. At the turn of the century the world was transfixed as two planes were hijacked and flown into the ‘Twin Towers.’ Many recent attacks have been carried out by Islamic Fundamentalist groups. In 2015, Boko Haram, the Taliban, Daesh and Al-Qaeda were responsible for 74% of all terrorist attacks which took place across the globe. It is widely recognised that aid is used to promote donor interests in areas such as curbing terrorism. This thesis is focused on identifying whether terrorist attacks which have been carried out by Islamic Fundamentalist groups has increased the amount of aid to Muslim countries. The research identifies that in the earliest parts of the 21st century Iraq and Afghanistan received large proportions of aid due to the ‘War on Terror.’ From 2010 onwards this trend shifts and other countries that have large Muslim populations have increasingly received vast proportions of aid. This trend has been attributed to the changing context and concerns such as the War in Syria and the migration crisis. The research also looks at whether isolated terrorist incidents influence aid allocations. I have examined trends related to UK aid before and after the 7/7 bombings. The evidence shows that countries which are defined by the US Department of State as ‘state sponsors of terrorism’ and ‘terrorist safe havens’ have received more aid after the 9/11 hijackings and then after the 7/7 bombings.

Abstract:
The intent of this thesis was to write a memoir of my five month trip to Libya that explores cultural differences through my experiences as an American with Western ideals. This memoir is focused on the cultural norms of marriage in the rural town of Msalata, in the central rural farming belt north of the ever expanding Sahara Desert of North Africa. My goal was to produce a work that is informational while showing the humanity of the local people through my perceptions as an outsider with different expectations. It was a time of discovery for me about the value of my upbringing and the positive aspects of American and Libyan culture. Our five months in Libya proved our strength and weakness. Libya was not what I expected. The people were hospitable beyond my experience. The customs at times were primitive and required an open mind. My children and I were the token Americans that summer who were invited to every wedding and birth. I was expected to attend many social events from circumcision celebrations to giving condolences along the side of my brother-in-law’s wife. Due to my American Christian upbringing I shared the moral values of Islam, which made it easy for me to become Muslim and live an Islamic life. At the same time, I could not fully accept all aspects of Libyan culture nor did my husband. Hadi rejected many things about his culture because it conflicted with Islam. My thesis did not come out the way I expected. It took a different direction from what I had original planned. It became focused on wedding traditions rather than on broader cultural contrasts.

The Oxford Handbook of Islamic Law offers a historiographic window into the scholarly treatment of a wide range of topics in the field of Islamic legal studies. Each essay, authored by an expert in the field, situates its subject in relation to historical academic scholarship. The historiographic feature of the volume is deliberate. It aims to assist readers—graduate students, scholars, and others—to appreciate the contested nature of key concepts and topics in Islamic law without taking any particular account for granted. The essays both describe and reflect on scholarly debates, and gesture to future areas of fruitful research.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter discusses Islamic Finance Institutions (IFIs), which are established on the principle that there should be no separation between temporal and religious matters. Compliance with the Shari’a is in theory the governing law for all aspects of a practising Muslim's life, including financial and business transactions. Recognizing that, under the Shari’a, money does not have a time-value separate from the value of goods that are exchanged through the use of money, IFIs embrace the principle of sharing profit and loss and reject interest as a cost for accepting and lending money. Within these constraints, IFIs offer various services, including: (a) Islamic commercial banking; (b) Islamic wealth and asset management; (c) Islamic insurance; and (d) social services, where the IFI makes loans. In practice, a firm will offer Islamic financial services either as a full IFI, whereby its entire business is dedicated to offering Shari’a-compliant services and products, or through an ‘Islamic Window’, whereby a part of the firm's business is dedicated to offering Shari’a-compliant services and products. In either case, the firm will appoint a Shari’a Supervisory Board (SSB) entrusted with the duty of directing, reviewing, and supervising the firm's activities to ensure compliance with the Shari’a.
