  • Abstract

Seyed Abbas Mousavian (1339 SH–1399 SH/2020 AD) was a Shia economist, a theorist on Islamic banking, and a member of the Jurisprudential Council of the Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Mousavian is regarded as influential figure in financial laws regulations of Iran.

He authored numerous scholarly works on Islamic banking and Islamic financial instruments, including the books Foundations of Islamic Finance, Islamic Capital Market, Stock Speculation from the Perspective of the Sharia, Jurisprudential Foundations of the Money and Capital Markets, Islamic Banking: Theoretical Foundations and Practical Experiences, and Islamic Financial Instruments (Sukuk).

Mousavian’s views on Islamic banking include: 1. The use of exchange-based contracts (banking contracts with fixed returns) and their important role in Islamic banking; 2. The superiority of the Islam-centered method over the jurisprudence-centered method in Islamic banking; 3. The permissibility of the penalty for delayed repayment of loan installments.

According to Mousavian, there are three conception in Islamic economics: the “Islamic economic system,” the “Islamic financial system,” and “economic jurisprudence.” The objective of the Islamic economic system is to establish public welfare. He regarded the Islamic financial system as a subsystem of the Islamic economic system whose purpose is financing (through the creation of Islamic financial instruments) and reducing the risk involved in transactions. In his view, economic jurisprudence is responsible for deducing prescriptive rulings (such as the ruling on usury) or declaratory rulings (such as the transfer of ownership) concerning financial and economic conduct and relations.

Abbas Mousavian recognized certain financial instruments as Islamic financial instruments, including certain types of qard al-hasan securities, murabaha securities, and lease securities. He regarded these securities as appropriate alternatives to bonds and preferred shares which are generally based on interest (usury).

With the aim of making and using Islamic financial instruments, Mousavian maintained that matters such as the conformity of securities with the standards of the Sharia and Imami jurisprudence, the accounting issues related to securities, the micro- and macroeconomic effects, and the risk involved in trading securities must be considered. He also paid attention to the legitimacy and acceptability of financial instruments at the international and interdenominational levels.

Introduction

Seyed Abbas Mousavian was a graduate of the Qom Seminary, a specialist in economic jurisprudence, and an authority on Islamic banking and financial matters. On the occasion of Mousavian’s death, jurists such as Seyed Ali Khamenei, Sadeq Amoli Larijani, Alireza Arafi, Ahmad Moballeghi, and Ali Akbar Rashad praised his knowledge of economic jurisprudence in their messages.[1] According to Mohammad Javad Tavakkoli, associate professor in the Department of Economics at the Imam Khomeini Institute (r), Mousavian adopted an applied approach to issues of Islamic economics and influenced the implementation of certain laws in this field. Some areas of his influence are as follows:

  1. The Banking System Transformation Plan; influential in the Fifth Development Plan Law.
  2. The lease securities or sukuk plan for the Securities and Exchange Organization; it prepared the ground for the issuance of banking sukuk under the Fifth Development Plan Law.
  3. The design of various forms of sukuk for the securities market and the amendment of certain laws governing this market.[2]

Mousavian produced more than one hundred works in the field of Islamic economics, both individually and collaboratively.[3] His individually authored works include the books Islamic Banking: Theoretical Foundations and Practical Experiences, Islamic Financial Instruments (Sukuk), and Islamic Capital Market.[4] Mousavian received several awards, including the World Award for Islamic Humanities and the Shahid Sadr Award.[5]

Mousavian held numerous executive positions and responsibilities, including:

  • Jurisprudential adviser to the Export Development Bank of Iran;
  • Special adviser to the secretary-general for jurisprudential and economic affairs at the Iranian Leasing Companies Association;
  • Membership in the Board of Trustees of Imam Sadiq University (a).[6]

Biography

Seyed Abbas Mousavian was born on 2 Khordad 1339 SH in Ajab Shir County in East Azerbaijan Province.[7] In 1360 SH, amid the Iranian Cultural Revolution, he withdrew from university and began studying religious sciences at the Qom Seminary.[8] Beginning in 1368 SH, he attended advanced courses in jurisprudence and principles of jurisprudence for ten years.[9] In 1384 SH, Mousavian defended his Level Four seminary dissertation in economic jurisprudence, entitled “The Jurisprudential Rulings of Securities.”[10] In addition to his seminary education, he studied theoretical economics at the master’s level at Shahid Beheshti University in Tehran.[11]

General Foundations in Islamic Economic Research

Some of Seyed Abbas Mousavian’s foundational views concerning Islamic economics are as follows:

Distinction between the Islamic Economic System, the Islamic Financial System, and Economic Jurisprudence

According to Mousavian, the literature of Islamic economics comprises three distinct components: the “Islamic economic system,” the “Islamic financial system,” and “economic jurisprudence.”

  • The Islamic economic system is a system intended to establish public welfare on the basis of Islamic principles. According to Mousavian, to achieve public welfare as its ultimate objective, the Islamic economic system requires three intermediate objectives: economic justice, economic security, and economic growth and development.[12]
  • The Islamic financial system is a subsystem of the Islamic economic system responsible for financing (through the creation of Islamic financial instruments) and reducing the risk involved in transactions.[13]
  • Economic jurisprudence explains the rulings governing property and its related relationships in the three fields of production, distribution, and consumption; this discipline includes deriving prescriptive rulings (such as the ruling on usury) or declaratory rulings (such as the transfer of ownership) concerning financial and economic conduct and relations.[14]

On this basis, in the book Foundations of Islamic Finance, Mousavian identifies four elements as the foundations of the Islamic economic system and its related subsystems:

  1. Islamic doctrinal and theological foundations, including Islam’s underlying worldviews concerning God, existence, humanity, and society.
  2. Positive and negative divine traditions governing human societies, based on felicity and proximity to God or wretchedness and remoteness from Him; such as the effect of the traditions of Godwariness and gratitude on the economic life of Islamic societies.[15]
  3. Economic ethics, defined in three areas: the relationship between the human being and God, the relationship between the human being and property, and the relationship between the human being and other human beings. These ethics are founded on immaterial causal relationships and divine traditions and affect the livelihood of individuals and society through immaterial and incalculable means. Ethical economic conduct (in a form outside the framework and principles legally established for it) contributes to the overarching objectives of the Islamic economic system, with functions and outcomes such as poverty alleviation, development, security, and economic justice.[16] Although recommended rulings are jurisprudential, Mousavian classified them under economic ethics.[17]
  4. Economic jurisprudence, which encompasses rulings governing conduct and relationships concerning property in the three areas of production, distribution, and consumption. These rulings direct individuals’ economic activities toward the objectives of the Islamic economic system. [18]

Foundations of Financial Instruments (Sukuk or Securities) According to Mousavian

In connection with the creation and use of Islamic financial instruments, Mousavian considered the following points:

  1. The definition of financial instruments must ensure conformity with the standards of the Sharia and Imami jurisprudence.[19]
  2. In addition to religious and legal requirements and frameworks, matters such as accounting issues and the risk involved in trading the instrument must be assessed.[20]
  3. Attention must be paid to the legitimacy and acceptability of financial instruments at the international and interdenominational levels so that they possess international legitimacy and acceptability.[21]
  4. Attention must be paid to the economic foundations of financial instruments. The economic foundations of financial instruments mean principles and criteria other than the religious conditions and principles stipulated for transactions. For example, in an instrument such as lease securities, in addition to the religious conditions and rulings governing leases, other criteria must be observed for the securities to become an efficient financial instrument. These criteria may be divided into the microeconomic foundations and macroeconomic foundations of financial instruments. Two criteria and foundations of microeconomics are as follows: 1. Liquidity: the capacity of financial instruments to be liquidated and rapidly converted into money. 2. Efficiency: the relative superiority of certain financial instruments over similar instruments in fulfilling customers’ objectives and motivations. Moreover, one of the criteria identified in the field of the macroeconomics of financial instruments is the financial instrument’s alignment with economic growth and justice.[22]

Using the Methods and Instruments of Conventional Economics in Islamic Economics

Mousavian maintains that methods and approaches developed within the conventional economic system are not incompatible with the Islamic economic system. According to him, these methods can be modified within the framework of the Islamic economic system and incorporated into the issues of Islamic economics.[23]

Mousavian’s Views on Islamic Banking

Mousavian held several views in the field of Islamic banking, including the following:

The Important Role of Exchange-Based Contracts in Islamic Banking Compared with Partnership Contracts

It has been stated that Mousavian’s early thought on banking emphasized the application of partnership contracts (contracts without a fixed rate of return and based on profit and loss),[24] but later (for example, in the “book Islamic Banking,” one of his final books), he regarded exchange-based contracts, such as murabaha, as possessing strong narrative foundations, being effective in Islamic banking, and being superior to partnership contracts.[25]

Permissibility of Penalties for Delayed Payment

According to Seyed Abbas Mousavian, a penalty for delayed payment is a means of reducing losses resulting from delayed payment of debts. He maintains that failure to pay debts on time leads to a reduction in deferred transactions, the erosion of public trust, a reduction in qard al-hasan loans, the imposition of heavier collateral and guarantees, and a decrease in the volume of financial exchanges.[26]

Superiority of the Islam-Centered Method over the Jurisprudence-Centered Method

One method for assessing banking matters and financial instruments is the jurisprudence-centered method; that is, banking methods or financial instruments must not conflict with jurisprudence. Moving beyond this view, Mousavian advocated replacing the jurisprudence-centered method with an Islam-centered method. The Islam-centered method adopts a systemic and multidimensional approach to human conduct and interactions. Some researchers in economic jurisprudence have regarded Mousavian’s theory as a movement toward the development of knowledge in this field.[27]

Explanation of the Jurisprudence-Centered Method

In the jurisprudence-centered method, two stages—jurisprudentialization and jurisprudential establishment—are discussed so that conformity with jurisprudence becomes a criterion for Islamic banking. Mousavian maintained that, at the jurisprudentialization stage, financial institutions are evaluated and reconstructed on the basis of Islamic jurisprudence through an approach based on the presumption of validity. According to Mousavian, at the jurisprudential establishment stage, a new model based on Shia jurisprudence must be presented or reproduced for financial institutions and instruments that have no precedent in conventional economics.[28]

Explanation of the Islam-Centered Method and Its Superiority

Rather than restricting itself to jurisprudence, the Islam-centered method uses all Islamic data—including ethical rulings, jurisprudence, divine traditions, and the objectives and principles of Islam—in constructing the economic system. Ghafouri and Mirmoezzi, researchers in jurisprudence, state that a study of Mousavian’s works demonstrates that, in some of them, he considered ethical principles or divine traditions when constructing an economic system. They identify the “article Religion and Economics” and the “book General Principles of the Islamic Economic System” as among Mousavian’s works in this field.[29]

According to these researchers, in this method Mousavian, as in the jurisprudence-centered method, proceeded through two stages in economics: Islamization and Islamic establishment. Islamization means examining and reconstructing the conventional economic model on the basis of all Islamic data, including ethical rulings, jurisprudence, divine traditions, and the objectives and principles of Islam. The Islamic establishment method likewise means presenting a new economic model based on these criteria.[30]

The superiority of the Islam-centered method over the jurisprudence-centered method lies in the fact that jurisprudence does not encompass all Islamic teachings in every respect, because jurisprudential knowledge does not necessarily correspond to the Preserved Tablet and is a conjectural and ijtihadi process. Accordingly, a model concerning financial institutions and instruments may not conflict with jurisprudence but may nevertheless contradict the principal foundations of the Sharia, such as justice, security, and freedom.[31]

No Distinction between Bank Interest and Usury

By equating bank interest with usury, Mousavian regarded views distinguishing between the two as incorrect and invalid.[32] Mousavian refers to several such views:

  1. Usury as an economic necessity of the present age: According to this theory, bank interest or usury is necessary for economic development in the present age and plays an effective role; pursuant to the maxim “necessities permit prohibitions” (al-darurat tubih al-mahzurat), rulings are relaxed in circumstances of harm.[33]
  2. Restricting usury to interest charged by private banks: On this basis, bank interest constitutes usury and is prohibited only when it relates to private banks, not state-owned banks, because state-owned banks are not exploitative institutions and have not been established to generate profits. Abbas Mousavian attributes this theory to Mohammad Hadi Marefat.[34]
  3. Restricting usury to an increase charged for extending the term: According to this view, prohibited usury is money paid to a lender in return for extending the repayment period of a loan. Mohammad Rashid Rida expressed this view in “Tafsir al-Manar” under Verse 130 of Sura Al Imran and in the “book al-Riba wa-l-Mu‘amalat fi al-Islam.” Interest charged in modern banking does not possess this characteristic.[35]

In rejecting these theories, Mousavian maintains that engagement in genuine transactions must be regarded as the principal means of earning profit and that new transactions arising from the expansion of the banking system must be carefully examined to ensure that they are free of every form of loan-based and transactional usury.[36]

Distinguishing Permissible and Impermissible Stratagems for Circumventing Usury

Mousavian divided stratagems for circumventing usury into permissible and impermissible stratagems. According to him, the criterion for impermissible stratagems is the absence of a genuine intention to undertake the alternative transaction or the applicability of usury to the stratagem despite the existence of a genuine intention. He maintained that this distinction depends largely on the parties’ intentions. In contrast, he classified spot and deferred sales, as well as the leasing of fixed assets, among permissible stratagems. He maintained that, in many transactions, because of the prohibition of usury, the parties genuinely intend to enter into permissible transactions.[37]

Securities from Mousavian’s Perspective

Abbas Mousavian accepted several financial instruments, such as qard al-hasan securities,[38] murabaha securities (in some of their forms),[39] and lease securities[40] as Islamic financial instruments. He regarded these securities as appropriate alternatives to bonds and preferred shares—which are generally based on interest.[41]

Bonds

Abbas Mousavian divides bonds into four categories (interest-bearing bonds, income bonds, prize bonds, and discount bonds). For each category, he reports and critiques the jurisprudential opinions of jurists and marjas, with most of the discussion concerning loans, usury, and the foundations of their prohibition.[42] According to Mousavian, none of the justifications for considering various types of bonds permissible possesses a jurisprudential foundation; according to the definition of usury, every loan in which an increase is stipulated and the borrower undertakes to pay that increase constitutes usury and is prohibited.[43]

Murabaha Securities

According to Mousavian, murabaha is a type of sale (purchase and sale) that, when structured as securities, represents the owner’s debt to the holder of the security.[44] Mousavian regards murabaha as legitimate in Imami jurisprudence and based on a narration from the sixth Imam of the Shia.[45] According to Mousavian, trading murabaha securities includes transactions other than the murabaha sale; after examination, it appears that Shia jurists have regarded the purchase and sale of these securities as valid under certain assumptions.[46]

Ordinary Shares

According to Mousavian, shares are a new phenomenon with no precedent in jurisprudential texts and constitute one of the newly arising issues.[47] Mousavian maintains that, provided the activities of public joint-stock companies concern legitimate subjects and are conducted in accordance with religious standards, the establishment of such companies and their operation within the framework of specific laws and regulations present no jurisprudential problem.[48]

Preferred Shares

Seyed Abbas Mousavian maintains that certain preferred shares present no jurisprudential problem, while others are prohibited. He regards “non-cumulative fixed-dividend preferred shares” and “non-cumulative participating preferred shares” as permissible, while considering “cumulative fixed-dividend preferred shares,” “cumulative participating preferred shares,” and “floating-rate preferred shares” to be instances of impermissible stratagems and usury.[49]
