In a modern office tower in downtown Kuala Lumpur, Ahmad Faris carefully reviews the day’s trading data. As a devout Muslim and seasoned finance professional, he once faced a difficult choice: to uphold his religious faith and abandon his financial career, or to compromise his beliefs for professional growth. That dilemma was finally resolved when he joined **CLEANO IMEX**.

> “Many Muslims face this same challenge,” Faris explains. “We want to remain faithful to our religion while participating in the modern economy. The Islamic account offered by CLEANO IMEX allows us to do exactly that.”

Deep Roots in Malaysia’s Islamic Finance Landscape

CLEANO IMEX’s Islamic finance innovation began with a profound understanding of the Malaysian market—where more than 60% of the population is Muslim. Traditional financial products often conflict with **Sharia law**, the most common example being **overnight interest (swap)**, considered a form of *riba*, or usury, which is strictly forbidden in Islam.

> “We formed a special committee composed of Islamic scholars, financial experts, and technologists,” explains **CLEANO IMEX CEO Lisa Zhang**. “After 18 months of research, we developed a trading mechanism that is fully compliant with Islamic law.”

The core of this mechanism lies in **technological redesign** of transaction processes.

Instead of charging overnight interest, the platform operates under a **commission-based model** approved by the Sharia advisory board. All tradable assets undergo strict screening to exclude industries that violate Islamic principles—such as alcohol, gambling, or conventional banking.

Faith-Aligned Technology in Practice

For 29-year-old kindergarten teacher and part-time trader **Nora Alia**, this innovation has been life-changing.

> “I used to worry about whether my investments were halal,” she says. “Now, with CLEANO IMEX’s app, I can clearly see the Sharia compliance certification label for every investment option.”

The platform leverages **blockchain technology** to record every transaction, ensuring full transparency.

Smart contracts automatically conduct **Sharia compliance checks**—if any trade potentially violates Islamic law, the system immediately issues an alert.

In addition, CLEANO IMEX integrates a **Zakat calculator**, helping Muslim investors automatically calculate and pay their religious charitable contributions.

Recognition from Malaysian Regulators

CLEANO IMEX’s innovation has drawn strong praise from national authorities.

> “Integrating modern fintech with Islamic financial principles is exactly the direction we aim to promote,” said **Dato’ Osman**, Director of Financial Compliance at Malaysia’s Department of Islamic Development (JAKIM).

According to data from the **Securities Commission Malaysia**, the number of Muslim users on CLEANO IMEX’s platform has grown **300%** since the launch of its Islamic account. Even more noteworthy is the rise in **non-Muslim users**, attracted by the platform’s transparency and ethical investment standards.
