Hence, a study was made upon 115 Muslim male students and findings suggested that while a strong majority of them know that the act of dressing and acting as a woman is prohibited in Islam, half of them do not know that it is an offence in their state and even more so, only slightly than one third of the respondents know the punishment for the offence.

Islamic finance which comprises the banking system, takaful (Islamic insurance) and capital market products and services offer an alternative to society. The development is said to be phenomenal with a double-digit annual growth rate since its inception. McKinsey & Company (2007) in his study stated that the value of Islamic banking assets and assets under Islamic management is expected to reach USD1 trillion by 2010, with Islamic banks growing more rapidly than the average banking sector in most countries. As of 2009, worldwide assets under shari’ah compliance grew four times from 0.5% to 2% of the world economy and reached MYR3.5 trillion (PEMANDU, 2010). With the increasing trends of Islamic finance, Islamic financial institutions (IFIs) around the world are encouraged to develop and innovate new products in order to meet the ever-changing demand from its customers and potential customers.
