...Values A value is a belief, a mission, or an idea that is speaking. Whether we are intentionally alert of them or not, every individual has a basic set of personal values. Values can range from the everyday, such as the belief in hard work and punctuality, to the more emotional, such as self-trust, concern for others, and agreement of purpose. Most of us learned our values - or morals, if you prefer - at home, at mosque or, at school. But, where are our children learning their values?

Personal Values When we examine the lives of famous people, we often see how personal values lead them, pushing them to the top of their fields.

Whatever one's values, when we take them to heart and implement them in the smallest details of our lives, great accomplishment and success are sure to follow. MORAL VALUES Moral values, such as honesty, responsibility, justice, are originally inborn values which Allâh planted in the hearts of mankind; then He sent His messengers with a system...

...Risk Management in Islamic and Conventional Banks: A Differential Analysis Salman Ahmed Shaikh* Dr. Amanat Ali Jalbani Abstract Islamic banking is interest-free banking which makes it necessary for Islamic banks to take active part in the operations of the business, i.e. share profits as well as losses. Banks including Islamic banks prefer to take minimum risk. On the surface, it may seem that Islamic banks face more risk and hence, will have more volatile or even negative returns on their assets. This paper analyzes the risk management procedures of Islamic banks by giving a differential analysis of risk management discussing only the unique characteristics of risk management in Islamic Banking. The usual credit assessment procedures and BASEL are not discussed. This paper looks at the comparative performance of Islamic banks and conventional banks by using ROE as the benchmark. Keywords: Risk management, commercial banking, Islamic banking, price risk 1. Introduction 1.1. Background of the Study Islamic Banking was first introduced in 1959 in Egypt.
