• Geleneksel ve İslami Kurumsal Yönetişim: Karşılaştırmalı Bir Perspektif (2026) · Selçuk Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Dergisi · doi

  Corporate governance refers to a system of relationships between a company’s boards, shareholders, and other stakeholders and offers the framework and process by which the company’s goals are formed, as well as the methods for achieving those goals and gauging success. Six different corporate governance models are used in different countries, such as the Anglo-Saxon, the European, the Germanic, the Japanese, the Latin, the Confucian, and the Islamic model. Especially, with the rise of Islamic economics, a branch of Islamic studies, and its assertion that businesses can use a corporate governance model based on the “principle of consultation,” where all stakeholders work toward the same objective—Tawhid, or the Oneness of Allah— corporate governance has become a hot topic of discussion. It has certain characteristics with traditional governance, such as corporate oversight and control, but differentiates itself from traditional governance by incorporating Islamic principles and practices. This research aims to contribute to the Turkish literature by explaining Islamic corporate governance in a comparative way, and proposing a model that includes the consequences of Islamic corporate governance. Moreover, suggestions are made for both business managers and future studies based on the gap in the literature and previous studies. Keywords: Corporate Governance, Islamic Corporate Governance, Theoretical Approaches. 1. Giriş İşletmelerin başarısız olmasında ve finansal krizlerin ortaya çıkmasında kurumsal yönetimde eksiklerin görülmesi temel bir etken olarak görülmektedir (A. Aslan & Nur Topaloğlu, 2020, s. 146). Bu gerekçeyle ülkelerde her ülkenin kendi yasal ve düzenleyici bakış açılarına göre oluşturulan farklı kurumsal yönetim türleri uygulanmaktadır(Alam, Rahman, Mustafa, Shah, & Rahman, 2019, s. 181). Kurumsal yönetişimin temel amacı, ekonomik ve sosyal hedefler ile bireysel ve toplumsal beklentiler arasında denge kurmaktır. Bu yaklaşım, kaynakların verimli kullanımını desteklerken, aynı zamanda bu kaynakların yönetiminde hesap toplumun çıkarlarının uyumlaştırılmasını işletmelerin ve verebilirliği zorunlu kılarak bireylerin, * Corresponding Author/Sorumlu Yazar, Doç.

• An Islamic Juristic Framework for Data and Algorithmic Monetisation in the Digital Economy (2026) · International Journal of Islamic Finance and Sustainable Development · doi

  Several lines of work could strengthen the framework’s external validity and policy uptake. Behavioural studies could examine Muslim users’ comprehension of consent, their privacy expectations, and their willingness to share data under Sharīʿah safeguards. Field audits of institutions’ scoring and machine learning models could be used to test bias, accuracy, and | 123 International Journal of Islamic Finance and Sustainable Development • Volume 18 • Number 2 • 2026 An Islamic Juristic Framework for Data and Algorithmic Monetisation in the Digital Economy resource use. Platform analyses of widely used ‘Islamic’ applications could benchmark their permissions and data-sharing against the proposed model. Economic evaluation could model data fiduciaries and trusts as wakālah arrangements, estimating costs, welfare gains, and competition effects. Doctrinal work could advance towards a systematic fiqh al-muʿāmalāt alraqamiyyah with standardised positions on consent architectures, gharar thresholds, and prohibited purpose taxonomies. Subsequent research should also develop and validate measurable thresholds for Sharīʿah assurance: whether transparent governance (disclosure, audit logs, and recourse) raises Sharīʿah-aligned trust and perceived compliance; whether consent-based stewardship improves perceived ʿadl and reduces perceived exploitation; and whether maqāṣid-based controls (purpose gating, fairness audits, and minimisation) measurably reduce bias and ethical risk in deployed systems. These programs would render the framework testable without reducing juristic analysis to technical metrics alone.

• Exploit, explore, and serve: a conceptual model of ambidexterity in islamic bank servitization (2026) · Future Business Journal · doi

  These limitations collectively define a clear and substan- tive agenda for future empirical inquiry. First, research- ers should develop and psychometrically validate measurement scales specifically tailored to servitization and ambidexterity in Islamic banking, encompassing the technological, market, and governance dimensions proposed in this framework. The absence of such instru- ments currently represents one of the most pressing methodological constraints in this emerging field of inquiry. Second, quantitative investigation employing struc- tural equation modeling (SEM) applied to survey data drawn from Islamic banks across diverse geographic and regulatory contexts could test the propositions advanced herein, with particular attention to the mediating role of ambidexterity in the relationship between servitization initiatives and performance outcomes—both financial and socio-economic. Third, qualitative longitudinal case studies of Islamic banks that have actively pursued digital servitiza- tion strategies would yield rich contextual insights into how exploration–exploitation tensions are managed in Bteibt and Bteibt Future Business Journal (2026) 12:198 Page 7 of 10 practice, how Shariah governance structures are inte- grated into innovation processes, and how value is co- created with customers and broader communities. Fourth, comparative research designs contrasting Islamic and conventional banks could empirically assess whether Shariah principles constitute a facilitating or constraining force in the development of ambidextrous servitization capabilities. Such studies could also examine the broader transferability of Islamic banking principles to ethical and sustainable service models in mainstream financial sectors. Finally, ecosystem-level research should investigate how partnerships with fintechs, non-governmental organizations, and regulatory bodies contribute to ambi- dextrous servitization. Comparative analyses contrast- ing dual-banking systems—such as Malaysia’s Maybank Islamic, operating within a mixed Islamic-conventional environment—with systems—including Islamic-only Saudi Arabia’s Al Rajhi Bank, the UAE’s Dubai Islamic Bank, and Jordan’s Islamic International Arab Bank— would illuminate how divergent regulatory frameworks shape the institutional conditions for ambidexterity [94, 97, 98, 98]. Such comparative work holds considerable potential to advance both theoretical understanding and evidence-based practice in Islamic banking strategy.

• Exploit, explore, and serve: a conceptual model of ambidexterity in islamic bank servitization (2026) · Future Business Journal · doi

  First, the framework is inherently conceptual in nature; all propositions are theoretically derived through the deductive synthesis of extant literature and have not been subjected to empirical testing. The absence of primary data collection means that the proposed relationships— including the mediating role of ambidexterity in the relationship between servitization initiatives and organ- izational performance—remain speculative pending rigorous empirical scrutiny. Second, the lack of context- specific, psychometrically validated measurement instru- ments constrains the immediate operationalization of the constructs advanced herein, representing a significant methodological gap for researchers seeking to translate this framework into testable hypotheses. Third, the theo- retical arguments draw predominantly on institutional contexts in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region and Malaysia, which may restrict the generalizability of the framework to jurisdictions characterized by divergent regulatory architectures, distinct Shariah interpretive traditions, and varying levels of financial sector devel- opment. Fourth, macro-level contingencies—includ- ing regulatory volatility, geopolitical uncertainty, and systemic disparities in digital infrastructure—are not fully incorporated into the framework, potentially limit- ing its explanatory scope in more turbulent institutional environments. Fifth, the framework’s relatively static conceptualization of ambidexterity does not sufficiently account for the temporal dynamics through which the exploration–exploitation balance may shift in response to competitive disruption, regulatory reform, or evolving customer expectations, suggesting the need for a more dynamic capabilities perspective in subsequent theoreti- cal development.
