Asalam u alaikum,
Ramadan has ended but we continue to reflect on its impact. Which is why we lead this newsletter with how Muslims amplify their charitable efforts during the holy month to complement their fasting and worship.
Also, do read how Central Asian countries continue to face challenges despite several opportunities for a burgeoning Islamic finance sector.
Finally, with the Gaza crisis in its seventh month, its residents struggle to find peace. We continue to include them in our prayers, and we hope you do, too.
