Kuala Ketil, 9 September 2026 — UniSHAMS students now have greater access to specialised knowledge and resources in Islamic finance following the official launch of ISRA Corner by INCEIF University at Perpustakaan Syeikh Abdul Majid.
The initiative, supported by CIMB Islamic Bank Berhad, provides students with an additional platform to explore Islamic finance beyond their classroom learning and gain greater exposure to developments within the industry.
ISRA Corner is particularly relevant to UniSHAMS students pursuing studies in areas such as Islamic finance, business, Shariah and related disciplines. The resources available at the corner can support their academic learning, research and understanding of how Islamic financial principles are applied in contemporary banking and finance.

Hussain, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic and International Affairs), UniSHAMS.
