In reality, financial planning also includes money management, emergency planning, investments, and estate planning among others. Muslims in Malaysia generally lack of involvement in the matters concerning financial planning. It is evident when the majority of those who are declared bankrupt are Muslims. Lack of Muslims’ participation in takāful and matters pertaining to Muslim inheritance is also worrying.
