At the same time, the country is striving to develop the field of Islamic economy, support Islamic banking while enabling modern technologies and intelligent applications in the digital age, and encourage innovation in Islamic banking and finance. This trend calls for further research and deep consideration to clarify the role of the United Arab Emirates in supporting the Islamic economy and its banking and Islamic finance, as the idea of the duality of the banking system may seem contradictory in its application.

The characteristics of the Islamic banking system reflect the reality of Sharia rulings without living and manipulation. However, the current situation has many observations, so coexistence has become at the expense of differentiation.
