| Summary: | Islamic financial institutions face significant challenges in courts in the country when they file cases against customers who have failed to meet their Murabahah-based financial obligations. Courts operating in UAE look at these cases in the same way as cases filed by conventional banks. The courts use the prevailing laws to recover the rights of Islamic financial institutions in absence of laws related to Murabaha in the banking sector. In some cases, the court appoints ‘Islamic banking expert’ who submits his report to the court in light of which the court decide to return the rights of the Islamic financial institution from the customer depending on the applicable laws. It is worth mentioning that the Islamic banking expert who submits his report to the court, does not have an authenticated legally approved source of law from which he derives the provisions of Islamic banking for presenting his opinion before the court and usually depends on his banking experience and most of the time do mistakes.

This will eliminate the factor of financial and spiritual loss from which the Islamic financial industry is suffering in absence of laws related to the Murabahah in the banking sector. To identify the need of the Islamic financial industry for the enacting of the Murabahah in the banking sector, the researcher intended to follow the qualitative approach in his research and conducted personal interviews to collect data and information with scholars, university professors, lawyers, experts, accountants, auditors, reviewers, Islamic bankers and practioners.
