Yayın Not to be left behind: Refugees and the role of waqf in the light of the ongoing COVID19 pandemic(İstanbul Sabahattin Zaim Üniversitesi, 2021) Kachkar, Omar; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüCOVID-19 pandemic has led to devastating effects on human life worldwide and has caused unprecedented disruptions in all economic and social aspects of life. Tens of millions of people particularly in fragile economies are at risk of slipping into extreme poverty. Refugees and other marginalised populations are feared to be left beyond the reach of aid packages and assistance plans. This paper is proposing the establishment of a waqf based fund to help refugees. Rational of this model is founded on several arguments. These arguments are related to the global refuge crisis which can be described as follows: a. it is a Muslim humanitarian crisis in the first place, b. it is not a temporary one, c. it is impacting mainly developing countries with a considerable number of Muslim-majority countries being the host of the majority of global refugees, d. majority of refugee stay in urban areas, d. Waqf constitutes a big potential to close the gap in humanitarian aid and to offer for the basic needs of refugees, e. a proper differentiation must be clear between emergency aid and long-term durable solutions for refugees. f. Similar differentiation must be observed between core poor refugees and economically active refugees in terms of durable solutions and economic engagement. Against the above backdrop, this paper is proposing a model of waqf fund for refugees that is similar to the Zakah refugee Fund created by the UNHCR. The objective of the model is to contribute in the relief and aid efforts and to make use of the create potential of the philanthropic sector. The proposed model shall use in-kind waqf and cash waqf as key sources of funds. Temporary and permanent waqf will be accepted. Collected funds will be invested and the revenues will be distributed on the beneficiaries in the specific aid sector as specified by the donor or the waqf founder. The current model can be a subject of further research to explore various aspects of the model such as the legal requirements and the operational challenges in the real environment.Yayın Best practices in using zakah to support microenterprises programs(Social Sciences University of Ankara (ASBÜ), 2021) Kachkar, Omar; Kachkar, Omar; Kachkar, Omar; Alfares, Marwa; Azrak, Tawfik; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüZakah is one of the most effective tools in the Islamic fiscal policy and economic system that has been introduced to achieve a variety of socio-economic objectives. On top of those objectives are poverty alleviation and wealth redistribution. The former objective is clearly indicated in the hadith that is narrated by imam al-Bukhari when the Prophet (PBUH) commanded Mu'adh bin Jabal, his delegate to govern Yemen: “Inform them (the people of Yemen) that Allah has made a charity obligatory upon them, that is collected from their rich and given back to their poor...Yayın The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the profitability and operational efficiency of Turkish banks: A comparative analysis(Higher Colleges of Technology, 2022) Azrak, Tawfik; Bwando, William; Kachkar, Omar; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüThe World Health Organisation (WHO) declared COVID-19 a global pandemic on 11 March, 2020. This is the highest level of health emergency in the global health regulations. The pandemic affected all the global aspects of life including social, political and economic interactions amongst humanity. Like any other sector involved in day-to-day economic activities, the financial sector had its own reaction to the external economic shock induced by the COVID-19 pandemic. The first objective of this study is to empirically investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the profitability and operational efficiency of conventional and participation banks in Turkey. The second objective of this study is to estimate the effect of the pandemic on the combined profitability and operational efficiency of the two categories together. Panel data with random effects was the main analysis methodology adopted by the study. The Turkish conventional banks examined by the study are Vakif Bank, Iş Bankasi, Ziraat Bankasi and Yapi Kredi and the participation banks are Kuwait Turk Bankasi, Albaraka, Turkiye Finans and Ziraat Katilim. The data used for the analysis ranges from 2016 to 2020. The results indicate that the pandemic had no effect on the profitability of the Turkish conventional banks but had a positive impact on the participation banks’ profitability. The results also suggest the pandemic had a negative impact on the operational efficiency of both conventional and participation banks. Moreover, for the combined analysis, the results could not establish any impact of the pandemic on the profitability of the two groups of banks in aggregate. However, the results of the study show negative impact of the pandemic on the combined efficiency of both sets of banks.Yayın et-Temvil el-cemai'i li'lagradi'l-hayriyye: Tahlil nakdi li'l-minassati'l-islamiyyeti'l-mevcude(Moroocan Center for Participation Economic, 2021) Kachkar, Omar; Kachkar, Omar; Kachkar, Omar; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümüتهدف هذه الورقة البحثية إلى تسليط الضوء على آخر التطورات الميدانية في التمويل الجماعي للأغراض الخيرية. بما في ذلك أبرز المنصات والإسلامية وآلية عملها وأهم التحديات التي تواجه هذه الصناعة الناشئة. تستخدم هذه الورقة المنهج النوعي من خلال استقراء آخر الدراسات والتقارير المتعلقة بالموضوع وخاصة تلك التي تناقش حالة التمويل الجماعي وخاصة الخيري منها بالإضافة الى إبراز آخر التوجهات في التبرع الخيري. وقد تناولت الدراسة ثلاثة من أنشط منصات التمويل الجماعي الخيري الإسلامية، وهي منصة فينتيرا ومنصة غلوبال صدقة وكذلك منصة لاونتش غود. كذلك ناقشت الدراسة أهم التحديات التي تواجه تطور الصناعة من خلال أخذ حالة منصة وقف وورلد التي توقفت بعد حوالي العام من انطلاقها. إضافة إلى التحديات العامة التي تنطبق على جميع منصات التمويل الجماعي الخيري منها والاستثماري. خلصت الدراسة إلى ضرورة استثمار هذا النوع الصاعد من أساليب التمويل الذي يعد طريقة واعدة بديلة عن طرق التمويل التقليدية. وسردت الورقة لائحة من التوصيات التي يجب اتباعها لدعم وتشجيع منصات التمويل الجماعي وبشكل خاص الخيري منها في العالم الإسلامي بما في ذلك تضافر الجهود للتغلب على التحديات القانونية والتنظيمية وغيرها.Yayın Exploring sustainability approach of the fashion brands in Turkey(Eurasian Research Institute, 2022) Yılmaz, Mustafa Kemal; Kachkar, Omar; Shehneh, Mohannad; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüThere has been an increasing interest in enhancing sustainability measures in fashion industry triggered by concerns on the depletion of the earth resources. The fashion industry is recently held to be responsible for at least 2.1 billion metric tons (4%) of global greenhouse-gas emissions. This comes along with other major impacts including higher rates of water and energy consumption. With this sizable impact on the environment, embracing sustainable actions in production and consumption stages become necessary for the industry. This study explores sustainable approach in the fashion industry of Turkey by focusing on three prominent fashion brands, and discusses the challenges and opportunities that they face. The results are important since Turkey is a key market player in international fashion industry and the fashion industry significantly contributes to the national economy. Employing a qualitative approach, we conducted six in-depth, semi-structured interviews with sustainability directors from three Turkish fashion brands along with some industry experts. We examined the data using a latent thematic analysis. The preliminary findings show that sustainability activities are still in the infant stage in the Turkish fashion industry. Most of the Turkish fashion brands are motivated by reasons other than just concerns about environment. The results indicate that companies are inclined to be sustainable mainly to follow international brands and improve brand image. Even though brands face challenges such as higher production cost, lack of government support, and supply chain problems in sustainability matters they are still optimistic about the future given the increasing awareness of young generation and the strategic vision of the country.
