Religious audit in the Islamic perspective – selected issues
Journal Title: Zeszyty Teoretyczne Rachunkowości - Year 2018, Vol 2018, Issue 98
Abstract
The purpose of the article is to identify the specific characteristics of religious audit performed in Muslim financial institutions. The thesis put forward in the study is that cultural (religious) identity, determining the space in which the functions assigned to audit processes are realized, determines their content and scope. The layout of the article and the applied research methods, including the subject literature studies and also the descriptive and comparative analysis were focused on obtaining the defined research purpose and verifying the specified thesis. The article, apart from the introduction and conclusion, is divided into three parts devoted to the following problems: a/the nature of religious audit performed by Muslim financial institutions, b/the profile of the auditor carrying out the audit and c/the challenges faced by religious audit due to current determinants and dynamics of Muslim finance development. As a result of the conducted research the above presented thesis was positively verified by observing that Islam, regard- ed as a factor influencing the institutional, cultural and socio-economic space in which Muslim financial institutions are functioning, determines the nature, functions and scope of the audit they perform. The value of the publication is its focus on the question rarely discussed in the national literature of the subject, i.e. religious audit performed in Islamic space.<br/><br/>
