Product approval is only the beginning.

A Shariah Supervisory Board approves products and structures. But compliance is decided transaction by transaction, branch by branch. Internal Shariah audit is how an institution proves that approvals match the ground reality.

Reputation and trust

Shariah non-compliance erodes the confidence of depositors, investors and customers, the foundation every Islamic financial institution is built on.

Income at stake

Income from a non-compliant transaction cannot be kept: it is given to charity. Every missed issue has a direct cost.

Rising expectations

Shariah governance frameworks, AAOIFI standards and central bank requirements expect consistent, documented and traceable audits.

Spreadsheets and scattered files can't keep up. Internal Shariah audit needs a system of its own.

Built for Shariah audit. Not adapted to it.

Purpose-built

An audit management system designed for internal Shariah audit functions, aligned with AAOIFI, IFSB and your central bank's Shariah governance framework.

The complete audit lifecycle

Annual planning, engagement planning, execution, observations, follow-ups and reporting, in one integrated system with a risk-based methodology.

A built-in knowledgebase

A rich repository of Shariah risks, controls, work programs and checklists for each product, configurable to your Shariah governance model and internal policies.

From annual plan to final report, one system.

iShariahAudit follows the risk-based internal audit methodology your auditors already know, with every step connected to the next.

Step 1
Annual planning
Understand the business, build your audit universe, assess risk and plan the year's audits and resources.
Step 2
Engagement planning
Define the scope, team responsibilities, materiality and sample for each audit.
Step 3
Execution
Identify key controls, evaluate their design and implementation, and execute risk-based work programs on every sample.
Step 4
Observations
Record observations with risk ratings and recommendations, collect Shariah Board and management comments, and track action plans to closure.
Step 5
Reporting
Produce executive summaries, detailed engagement reports and annual or quarterly reports, consistently every time.

Sign-offs at every stage keep each engagement under control.

Success story

How a leading Islamic bank transformed its internal Shariah audit.

A leading Islamic bank in the Middle East, serving retail, corporate and wealth clients, needed tighter control and greater transparency over its internal Shariah audit. Together with our partner Azentio Software, we replaced manual processes with iShariahAudit.

The challenge

Audit documentation in spreadsheets, spread across departments
Long planning and reporting cycles
Rising expectations under the Shariah governance framework
No real-time view for audit leadership and the Shariah Supervisory Board

The transformation

Annual and engagement-level risk scoring
One repository of Shariah risks, controls and work programs
Structured workflows from planning to sign-off
Role-based access for auditors, reviewers and stakeholders

The result

Significant reduction in audit preparation and documentation time
Standardized reporting across all engagements
Stronger traceability and regulatory alignment
Faster decisions and better collaboration

“iShariahAudit has elevated our Shariah audit function to a new level of efficiency and transparency. It supports our vision of achieving operational excellence while maintaining the highest standards of Shariah compliance.”

Audit background

Shariah background

iShariahAudit

Shariah audit needs two kinds of expertise. iShariahAudit brings them together.

Finding the right people is one of the hardest challenges in Shariah audit. Auditors know the risk methodology but are new to Shariah rules. Shariah graduates are strong in the rules but new to audit processes.

iShariahAudit builds both into every step: the methodology guides the process, and the knowledgebase guides the substance.

Productive sooner. Methodology and Shariah knowledge at every step.
Consistent audits. The same method, across every team and engagement.
Lower cost. Capable mid-level teams, guided by the system, rather than relying only on scarce senior experts.

Fits your systems, your structure and your governance.

Transactions from core banking

Flexible transaction tables for each product, with any number of fields. Load them by CSV import, or let your IT team fill them with scheduled ETL jobs.

Documents from your archive

Retrieve each transaction's documents directly from your document archiving system, mapped by product and document type. No manual uploads.

One central system

Head office, regional offices and branches work on one platform, configured to your organizational structure and audit universe.

Governance built in

Role-based access for auditors, team leaders, reviewers and auditees, sign-offs at every stage, and a complete audit trail.

For every institution that offers Shariah-compliant finance.
