Opinion Poll @ IBA

Question 1: Do you think the Riba-Free Banking System will be a success in Pakistan if it is implemented properly?

Question 2: Have you visited at least one purely Islamic website?

Comments:

It is quite encouraging to see that awareness about the Interest-Free system is on the increase The negative answer to this question is mainly because of lack of awareness about the interest free system and the perceived difficulties in the implementation of the change due to lack of professionalism and dishonesty in the banking sector. But according to Mr. Pervez Said of Al-Meezan Bank, the interest free system could be implemented by the given deadline provided the matter is taken seriously as a change management issue.

The need is that we should acquire more information about the new interest free system and try to strengthen our faith so that we can help in the success of this initiative.

The majority of students surveyed for the second question have replied in the affirmative. This shows that most of them do have some interest in gaining knowledge about Islam through modern means i.e. the Internet. This is a good sign as it indicates that the students are very keen in clarifying their misconceptions about religion and also want to gain more insight about Islam for their own benefit and the new media "Internet" is serving the purpose well.
