Dr. Sami Al-Suwailem, Acting Director General of the IsDB Institute, said: “The book falls within the endeavours of the Islamic Development Bank Institute to publish distinguished economic studies related to member countries. This study carefully documents an important experience of the Banks’ host country”.

The author of the book, Dr. Ahmed Mohamed Youssef, said, “The book is an in-depth study that covers all developments passed on the money circulating in Arabian Peninsula during this period, and the great economic and monetary role of that currencies in monetary life at local and global levels.”
