The Proscription of Incorporated Law Practices (ILPs) in Nigeria: The Legal and Constitutional Issues Arising
(CHOTANAGPUR LAW COLLEGE, NAMKUM, RANCHI RANCHI UNIVERSITY, RANCHI, JHARKHAND, INDIA, 2012) Ishola, Abdullahi Saliu
This paper critically examines the legality and constitutionality of the provision of Rule 5 sub-rule (5) of the Rules of Professional Conduct for Legal Practitioners, 2007 (the Rules), prohibiting the practice of law in Nigeria as a corporation. The appraisal is done on the scales of the provisions of Sections 40 and 42 of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, as amended (the Constitution), providing for rights to freedom of association and peaceful assembly and freedom from discrimination, respectively; on one hand, and, Section 18 of the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA), allowing any two or more persons to form and incorporate a company; on the other hand. The illegality is also appraised from the purview that, the Rules is a mere subsidiary legislation which cannot override the Constitution as the supreme law of the land and CAMA as a substantive enabling Act. On another angle, following a consideration of the significant purpose of protective measure which the provision of the Rules sets out to achieve for law practice in the country, the paper concludes by suggesting the better way the Rules could enact the regulation without falling into the trap of illegality.

ANTI-TERRORISM FINANCING LAWS IN MALAYSIA: CURRENT TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENTS
(Ahmad Ibrahim Kulliyyah of Laws (AIKOL), 2015) Zubair, Aishat Abdul-Qadir; Umar A. Oseni; Norhashimah Mohd Yasin
Malaysia has continued to proactively enhance its legal framework for combating terrorism financing as a phenomenal response to the global war against terrorism. This paper revisits the provisions relating to anti-terrorism financing in the Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorism Financing Act 2001 (AMLATFA), and the recent amendment made to the Act in 2014, as well as the Penal Code of Malaysia. While this study focuses on Anti-Terrorism Laws in Malaysia, AMLATFA forms the crux of the discussion in the light of current developments in anti-terrorism legislation in Malaysia. A brief Islamic legal perspective on anti-terrorism financing is given in the light of specific provisions of AMLATFA and the Penal Code. The paper finds that Malaysia is keeping up with the global developments in Anti-Terrorism Financing laws and this has helped it to maintain a good image in the global world as a country that is ready to combat terrorism generally and terrorism financing specifically. With the emerging threats of the self-styled Islamic State in Iraq and Levant (ISIL) in Malaysia and the world at large, there is no better time than now to come up with a more comprehensive law such as the Prevention of Terrorism Act 2015 to complement existing legislations on terrorism financing.

Conventional Bank Interest and the Murabahah (cost-plus-profit) Contract in Islamic Finance: Two Sides of a Coin or two Coins of Different Sides?
(Journal of Islamic Banking and Finance, 2015-04) Ishola, Abdullahi Saliu; Solahudeen, Isa Olawale
The emergence of the Islamic banking system led to the introduction of some financial transactions which were not hitherto considered in the classical books on Islamic financial system. Murabahah is one of such innovations. Like most of those newly introduced products of the Islamic Financial System or Arrangement (IFS or IFA), otherwise referred to as Products of Islamic Banking (PIB) or Products of Islamic Finance (PIF), arguments have been canvassed for and against the legality of Murabahah under Islamic Financial Principles (IFP). Of all the criticism against its operation, the most pronounced deprecation against it posits that, Murabahah is too close to interest transaction in the conventional banks, and cannot therefore be legally allowed in IFS. This paper examines the criticism and posits whether the criticism is tenable or not on the scale of the Islamic Law and given the financial market challenges facing the contemporary Muslim world.
Insurable Interest in Takaful: A Theoretical Contrivance for Islamic Insurers
(International Journal of Economics and Financial Issues, 2016) Abdul Azeez, Yusuf; Ishola, Abdullahi Saliu
The Takaful (Islamic Insurance) is not only a key branch of the Islamic Financial System but also one of the important Islamic financial instruments and a strong tool for managing individual risks and business overturns. In terms of operational models, it shares some business setups with Islamic banking, and in a way, it is regarded as “a modern technical approach to Islamic banking operation,” for it evolved, like Islamic banking, from the determination of Muslims to revive the Islamic way of life, particularly in the reorganization of finance and economy; an exertion often described as a very difficult jihad: Building a financial system where interest does not exist. Accordingly, this research attempts to propound some theories for assessment of insurable interest in Islamic insurance (Takaful). The theories, as analyzed are intended to serve as working tools for the present and future Islamic insurers, without limitation to differences in place and space. In doing this, the work is divided into five parts. The first part introduces the study while terminology clarification is undertaking in the second part. The third part examines the legal basis for the insurable interest in Takaful, while the conceptual precepts for the development and application of the theories are taken up in the fourth part with certain relevant study inferences forming the concluding part.

Viability of Cash Waqf Models Under the Nigerian Law: An Appraisal
(Journal of Islamic Law Review, 2016-01) Ishola, Abdullahi Saliu; Syed Abdul Kader, Sharifah Zubaidah; Ansari, Abdul Hazeeb
Cash awqaf (plural of waqf ) have been a well-recognised tool for social development of Muslims in various countries wherever they are being practiced. It is governed by set of Islamic principles pertaining to awqaf converted by some countries into legislation. In those countries, they have proven to be one of the tools for social welfare and alleviation and ultimate eradication of poverty, based on the will of the waqeefs. In order to serve the purpose of their creation, it is better if the waqf money is allowed to be invested in the interest of the beneficiaries and growth of the awqaf. There are a number of legal issues pertaining to administration of cash waqf, which are yet to be addressed. The existing literatures on cash waqf also do not have definite answers to them. In Nigeria, cash waqf is not well in practice. Because of this reason, there is lack of a legal framework on it. The paper reviewed the existing literatures on cash waqf, but they are not dealing with it in the context of Nigeria. The paper presents an appraisal of the papers reviewed.
JURISTIC STUDY ON CONDITIONALITY OF AL-MAḤRĀM FOR NIGERIAN FEMALE ḤAJJ (PILGRIM): IMPLICATIONS AND SOLUTIONS
(Jurnal Syariah, Jil. 25, Bil. 2 (2017) 289-312, 2017) AbdulWahab Mhammad Jamiu ELESIN
The requirement for a female Muslim to have a maḥrām when traveling is not peculiar to hajj and ʻumrah alone. However, in the contemporary period, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has become very strict on such a condition, especially on ʻumrah and hajj. The legal implication of this system is that a female Muslim may not participate in hajj or ʻumrah if her maḥrām cannot perform hajj or ʻumrah with her for various reasons. However, this study reveals that the result of such a strict condition has led operators of the hajj and ʻumrah to falsify data by applying for their visa through another male pilgrim who is not their legal maḥrām. Eventually, such intending female pilgrims end up performing the hajj or ʻumrah with a group of trustworthy women or men, as has been rightly supported by a reasonable numbers of independent jurists. It is worthy of note that this practice of accompany with a maḥrām for a travelling female Muslim originates from the statement of the Messenger of Allāh (SAW) due to the prevailing circumstances of the ummah at his time. The practice of his noble companions after him support this understanding. This paper analyzes the legal precedent and reasoning behind this condition and offers reasonable, practical and meaningful solutions.
