The Muslim Money podcast, hosted by Dr Imran Lum, talks about anything and everything related to Muslims and money. The idea behind this podcast series is to increase Islamic financial literacy on all things related to Muslims and Money. Leveraging the host's academic studies and work in the Islamic finance industry, the series covers some of the prohibitions namely ribā or what many interpret as interest, Islamic economics, Islamic finance structures, and also what it's like to work in the Islamic finance industry. The host talks to experts, business leaders, investors, and academics who are shaping the Islamic finance industry and it will also cover money and relationships.
