Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Principles of Islamic Marketing fills a gap in international business literature covering the aspects and values of Islamic business thought.

The Islamic Economic System is a business model adopted by nearly one quarter of the world’s population.

His book provides a complete guide for an organization when managing its entire marketing function or when customising part of its offering to suit Muslim customers. It addresses the challenges facing marketers involved in business activities with and within Islamic communities, the knowledge needs of academic institutions, and the interest of multinationals keen on tapping the huge Islamic markets. Along the way, Baker Alserhan provides insights into key elements such as, distribution channels, retailing practices, branding, positioning, and pricing; all within the Muslim legal and cultural norms. This second edition brings the book up to date and features a number of new case studies and two additional chapters on Maqasid Al Shariah and the Islamic economy, and a strategic perspective on Islamic marketing and branding.

Book Marketing across cultures with a focus on Islamic Marketing

Download or read book Marketing across cultures with a focus on Islamic Marketing written by Sanja Hajdarpasic and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2015-06-08 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject Communications - Public Relations, Advertising, Marketing, Social Media, grade: A, Oxford Brookes University, course: Islamic Marketing, language: English, abstract: Due to the acceleration of globalization and enormous growth of Muslim population, interest in Islamic marketing increased significantly in the past years. The study of this dissertation aims to investigate to what extent Islam as a religion affects marketing and its components. It was hypothesized that Islam affects marketing in Islamic markets significantly, depending on the country and on the specific industry. The author intends to fill in a research gap in this area by narrowing its focus on the promotional strategy of products and services in Islamic markets. The conclusion of the study is based on evaluation of primary and secondary research data. The outcome of the study showed that Islam indeed has meaningful impact on the business issues generally, particularly on the marketing. Marketers and companies should bear in mind the existing distinction between certain industries and countries, as Islam does not affect all of them equally.

Book Islam  Marketing and Consumption

Download or read book Islam Marketing and Consumption written by Aliakbar Jafari and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-01-13 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, a critically oriented sub-stream of research on Muslim consumers and businesses has begun to emerge. This scholarship, located both within and outside the marketing field, adopts a socio-culturally situated approach to Islam and investigates the complex and multifaceted intersections between Islam and markets. This book seeks to reflect various unheard and emerging critical voices from within the Muslim world, and provide a series of critical insights on how, if and why Islam matters to marketing theory and practice. It questions the existing assumptions and polarising discussions which underpin the portrayal of Islam as the ‘other’ of Modernity, while acknowledging that Muslims themselves are partially responsible for creating stereotyped representations of Islam and ‘the Muslim’. This wide-ranging and insightful collection will advance emerging critical perspectives, and provide new insights that will influence the generation and application of knowledge in the context of Muslim societies. It will open up fresh conversations for scholars in marketing as well as the broader humanities and social sciences.

Book The Role of Islamic Spirituality in the Management and Leadership Process

Download or read book The Role of Islamic Spirituality in the Management and Leadership Process written by Abdul Mutalib, Mahazan and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-05-07 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leaders nowadays need to know, learn, and apply the concept of qalb leadership where it has been taught by the Prophet Muhammad as well as explained by Islamic scholars. The comparison with other mindful leadership concepts is required to provide solutions and options in leadership for better outcomes and spiritual awareness. It is found that leadership literature, in general, is unable to generate an understanding of a leadership concept that is both intellectually compelling and emotionally satisfying. As for qalb leadership, it focuses on the spirituality of leadership that can aid in facing unpredictable manners and provide better outcomes for followers. Research on Islamic leadership and spirituality may pave the way for better leadership practices in the future. The Role of Islamic Spirituality in the Management and Leadership Process will elaborate the spirituality and qalb in human life and leadership along with providing a discussion on the role and function of qalb in the overall leadership process. Through spirituality, human interdependence, creativity, and social justice can be created and molded. This type of leadership enables transformation in a natural way without denying basic human nature and imparts balance to both the outer and inner needs of humans. With the discussion of four cardinal virtues of Al-Ghazali, leaders can solve many problems that emerge in their organizations. This book is ideal for managers, executives, theologians, professionals, researchers, academicians, and students who are interested in how Islamic spirituality plays a role in leadership.

Book Labor in an Islamic Setting

Download or read book Labor in an Islamic Setting written by Necmettin Kizilkaya and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-03-27 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Islamic labor market rests on the principles of the free market exchange of Islamic economics. Regrettably, the latter has failed to keep pace with the rapidly growing academic and professional developments of the former. Much of the published work within Islamic economics is idealistic if not radically ideological with little relevance to the Islamic labor market, leaving students of Islamic economics without a coherent body of economic theory to understand the practical objectives of Shariah that gives a sense of direction to the developments in this field. Drawing upon received sources of goals of Shariah, the authors present an independent academic work which: Emphasizes the common conceptual grounds of labor market behavior shared by the objectives of Shariah approach as well as the conventional approach to economics. Adopts standard tools of contemporary economics to explain the industrial relations. Extends the conventional scope of the labor market and forces of the labor market under the umbrella of Shariah. Enables readers and practitioners of Islamic economics to make economic sense of Shariah compliance and human resource development. Explains how the economics of Shariah is liable to offer moral guidance and a sense of direction to regulators and practitioners of the Islamic labor market. Labor in an Islamic Setting will be of interest to postgraduate students, academics, middle and senior management in both the western and the Islamic business communities, researchers and policy makers.

Book Brand Identity Factors  Developing a Successful Islamic Brand

Download or read book Brand Identity Factors Developing a Successful Islamic Brand written by Vedad Alihodzic and published by Anchor Academic Publishing (aap_verlag). This book was released on 2013-05-17 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The market for Islam-compliant products is getting more and more important, due to the high impact of religious obligation on Muslim consumer behaviour. According to studies, the market for Muslim-compliant brands has increased dramatically, with a global worth of $1.5 trillion a year. However, the market for Islam-compliant brands seems to be underdeveloped in Europe when compared to the rest of the world. Surprisingly, little research is conducted in this highly attractive segment, although Islam is assumed to be the fastest growing religion, with a total of 1.6 billion followers. Furthermore, especially young Muslim consumers constantly demand brands which enable an Islamic lifestyle. When creating brands, the concept of brand identity is highly important as it provides brand uniqueness and the main idea of what a brand stands for. Furthermore, this concept is a fundament for making target-group-specific decisions in brand management. The central question within this study concerns the fact that within the global environment, Muslims especially in non-Muslim countries do not know whether a brand is compliant with Islamic standards and can thus be consumed. This study contributes to close the gap in this segment by identifying several brand identity factors which can help to create an Islam-compliant brand identity. A model is created which helps to manage brand identity in order to attract Muslim consumers. Furthermore, it allows balancing each brand identity according to the needs of a target group and, consequently, enables Muslim consumers to identify a brand as Islam-compliant.
