Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the Shariah view on the legitimacy of requiring the entrepreneur to prove that he/she has complied with all business requirements in case the actual profit was below the expected profit in trust-based contracts such as mudarabah and musharakah. Design/methodology/approach This paper is part of the research which applies qualitative research approaches, including among others, content analysis, interviews, observations and descriptive analysis using fiqh muqaran (comparative analysis of jurists’ arguments) in few phases. Findings The study found that shifting the burden of proof to the fiduciary is the weightier view and necessary to ensure that both sides are protected. The considerations of protecting people’s wealth (ḥifẓ amwāl al-nās) and mitigating widespread greed (ṭamaʿ) are among the reasons for allowing elements such as ʿurf, tuhmah and dalālat al-ḥāl to be treated as bayyinah in trust-based contracts when the fiduciary is obliged to defend himself from litigation. Research limitations/implications The study is meant to strengthen the practices of Islamic banks world wide. Practical implications Few protections can be applied for capital provider. Social implications This study is meant to give solution in dealing with moral hazard of both parties, and to provide solution to the regulator for policy drafting and to increase confidence to the industry. Originality/value The finding is important in assisting the regulators in drafting the policy to protect both parties without neglecting the essence of trust-based contracts.

PurposeIn recent years, the fast growth of Islamic banks (IBs) has generated debates among policymakers and economists about the sustainability and performance of these institutions. This paper aims to undertake a comparative analysis of the financial performance of IBs and conventional banks (CBs) in Pakistan over the period 2008–2019 to evaluate how IBs are faring compared to their conventional peers.Design/methodology/approachThis paper considers financial ratio analysis (FRA) to analyze and compare the performance of the top-10 IBs and CBs operating in Pakistan. The sample includes five full-fledged IBs and five CBs which offer Islamic windows in Pakistan. We have selected the top-5 best performing CBs offering Islamic windows. This study offers a comparative analysis of Islamic v/s conventional banks.FindingsThe results show that Islamic banks are better capitalized, less risky and have higher liquidity. In contrast, the profit of Islamic banks is found lower than CBs. The logical reasoning behind these performance indicators has been discussed in detail.Research limitations/implicationsThe study has provided an analysis of financial performance only for Pakistan. A cross-country analysis could be more representative of the performance of Islamic Banks.Practical implicationsThe size of Islamic banking industry should be enhanced by opening new branches and promoting Islamic finance literacy.Originality/valueThe study assists investors, borrowers and managers in making better decisions. It also provides the latest valuable information to regulators and policymakers in making rules and policies for the financial industry in Pakistan.
