SZABIST University Islamabad proudly announces that its faculty participated in the State Bank of Pakistan’s Islamic Banking Professional Development Program (IBPD). This national program strengthens professional excellence in Islamic Finance and Shariah-compliant banking.

Mr. Muhammad Ali Khan (Lecturer & Focal Person – Industrial Liaison, Management Sciences) and Dr. Hassan Raza (Associate Professor & Program Manager – BSAF) represented SZABIST at the event. The five-day training deepened their understanding of Islamic banking systems and their application in the financial sector.

The Islamic Banking Program 2025 provided participants with knowledge of Shariah-based contracts, financial operations, and risk management. The sessions combined theory with practical examples, bridging the gap between academia and industry.

Renowned experts such as Dr. Rashid Mansoor (PhD in Islamic Finance, INCEIF University) and Mufti Fuwad Ali (Corporate Shariah Advisor) led the sessions. Their insights helped participants explore real-world practices of Islamic finance in Pakistan’s banking institutions.

This achievement reflects SZABIST’s commitment to continuous learning and professional growth. By engaging in the State Bank’s Islamic Banking Program 2025, the university continues to promote academic excellence and strengthen collaboration with national institutions.

Congratulations to our faculty members for representing SZABIST with dedication and advancing the field of Islamic finance in Pakistan.
