This special issue of Global Policy brings together a collection of scholarly works that explore Islamic finance's potential to promote financial inclusion and empowerment among refugees and immigrant communities. The papers unpick the synergies between Islamic finance and entrepreneurship by focusing on marginalised groups, such as Muslim refugees and immigrant entrepreneurs. The research aims to bring substantive Islamic morality back into Islamic finance institutions and their operations, and contribute to the broader debates on refugees and immigrants' emancipation.
