These are products governed by contracts that connect Islamic financial institutions and consumers. The goals of this research are to (1) Examine Islamic financial products in the UAE, (2) investigate legal issues found by consumers in Islamic financial products in the UAE, and (3) make recommendations and improvements to Islamic residential property financing products to protect the consumers in the UAE.
