Tabadulat, the Shariah-compliant brokerage platform based in Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) and recipient of In-Principle Approval from ADGM’s Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA), has joined the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI). The membership aligns Tabadulat with the foremost international institution guiding best practices in Islamic finance.
This development reinforces Tabadulat’s long-term commitment to governance, Shariah integrity, and transparency, as it continues to expand its ethical investment offerings tailored for Muslim investors around the world.
Founded in 1991 and headquartered in Bahrain, AAOIFI is a non-profit organisation responsible for issuing standards on Shariah, accounting, auditing, governance, and ethics for Islamic financial institutions. Recognised globally as the “Gold Standard” of Islamic finance, AAOIFI’s work promotes the unification and consistency of practices across the industry in accordance with Shariah law and global financial standards.
Samy Mohamad, CEO and Co-founder of Tabadulat, commented: “Joining AAOIFI as a member is a major milestone in our journey to shape the future of Shariah-compliant investing. Our platform was built to provide transparency, accessibility, and equity to every Muslim investor. By aligning with AAOIFI’s globally recognised standards, we’re reinforcing our foundation for growth, especially as we explore real-world asset tokenisation and digital asset trading within an Islamic framework.”
Sheikh Omar Mustafa Ansari, Secretary General of AAOIFI, added: “We are pleased to welcome Tabadulat as a member of AAOIFI. Their focus on digital innovation and commitment to Shariah-compliant investing reflect the forward-looking spirit we aim to promote in the Islamic finance industry.”
The collaboration provides Tabadulat with access to AAOIFI’s extensive library of Shariah and governance standards, as well as training and development initiatives. It will also enable the company to actively participate in AAOIFI’s technical working groups, contributing to the evolution of global ethical fintech and Islamic digital investment solutions.
