Islami banks
I am a regular reader of DS and I thank you for providing quality news to thousands of readers living at home and abroad.
One thing I would like to bring to your attention - there are now several Islami Shariah governed banks in our country and they are doing a great job in the financial sector. But I think some of them do not respect the country's constitution. Because those banks usually don't recruit non-Muslim citizens.
I worked in one such banks and though I was not involved in recruiting, it was a known fact there. They used to argue that a non-Muslim would not understand or respect the law of Islam, so it was better not to hire them. But to me, this is baseless. What about the foreign banks that also provide similar services?
Above all, everyone should respect our constitution which does not differentiate between Muslims and non-Muslims.
