Get Certified
A credential your customers, investors and stakeholders can verify — not just take your word for.
Trust is the hardest thing to prove
Islamic finance is growing fast — but trust and clarity haven't kept pace.
Too much conflicting opinion
An abundance of competing rulings makes it hard for businesses and charities to know whose word to trust.
Compliance is hard to prove
Without recognised certification, customers and investors can't verify that a product or service is genuinely Shari'ah-compliant.
Disputes go unresolved
Commercial disagreements rooted in Shari'ah — partnerships, inheritance, zakah — often have nowhere qualified to turn.
Six reasons organisations certify with IFA
Certification is more than a badge — it changes how customers, investors and regulators can rely on you.
Trust & credibility
A recognised certification customers and investors can check, rather than a claim they must take on faith.
Verified compliance
Our review process surfaces and resolves areas of non-compliance before they become a problem.
Proof you can show
Concrete evidence of compliance for clients, investors and regulators — published on our public register.
Ongoing, not one-off
Annual review, audit and renewal — a continuing relationship as your products evolve.
Collective scholarship
Certification carries the weight of Shurā among our Panel of Scholars — not one individual's opinion.
Competitive differentiation
Stand out in a market where compliance is increasingly scrutinised by Muslim customers.
Proof your customers can check — live
What makes IFA certification different is what happens after the certificate is issued.

Every certification is published on our register — with the certificate, official letter and badge available to view.

Anyone — customer, investor or regulator — can confirm a certification is current before they rely on it.
From scoping to a published credential
A clear, collaborative process — ending in a certification you can publish and your customers can verify.
