Hajah and Darurah:
Key Shariah and Operational Issues for Islamic Financial Institutions

Date: 29th May 2023
Venue: Kuala Lumpur

Classroom Training

Dr Rusni Hassan Associate Professor and Deputy Dean IIUM Institute of Islamic Banking and Finance (IIiBF)

COURSE BACKGROUND

Hajah and Darurah are increasingly important principles in Islamic finance. Literally translated as ‘need’ and ‘dire necessity’, Hajah and Darurah represent an important and fundamental shift in the thinking surrounding the development and provision of Islamic financial products. Implications for Islamic financial institutions could potentially be far-reaching, with the most significant effects being seen in Shariah, product development, risk management, credit, and recovery.

Following the release of Bank Negara Malaysia’s proactive late-2022 Exposure Draft, it is clear the implementation of Hajah and Darurah is now very much on the regulatory radar. As such, what do banks, Takaful companies and other Islamic financial institutions need to know, and what are the key operational issues of implementing Hajah and Darurah into business lines and product offerings? What is the position and role of risk and Shariah, and how are Hajah and Darurah likely to influence product development and risk management?

In this concise, one-day session we will identify real-life issues, questions and challenges associated with the implementation of Hajah and Darurah. More importantly, the program will offer practical solutions for Islamic financial institutions looking to understand more about the application and implementation of Hajah and Darurah.

  • Key learning Outcomes
    • Understand what the principles of Hajah and Darurah mean, and why they are important for the Islamic financial services industry
    • Examine the current regulatory framework for the implementation of Hajah and Darurah, including salient points of the recent BNM Exposure Draft
    • Discuss the position and role of Shariah regarding the of implementation of Hajah and Darurah in Islamic financial products and services
    • Establish operational frameworks for the assessment, deduction and implementation of Hajah and Darurah
    • Assess real-life product cases and practical implementation of Hajah and Darurah within the business lines of an Islamic financial institution
    • Identify key issues for Shariah compliance, audit and reporting pertaining to Hajah and Darurah
