Infoprations has announced the launch of a new educational initiative on halal finance through its SimplyHalal (Ethical) Investment Community, a specialized unit dedicated to promoting financial literacy and ethical investment. The series, called the Halal Investment Knowledge Sessions, will debut on Saturday, October 4, 2025, with the theme: “Principles of Overcoming Financial Challenges and Creating Halal Way to Wealth.” The first session, scheduled for 5:00 p.m. (WAT) on Zoom, will be delivered by Dr. Abdulrazaq Taiye Jimoh, ACA, Head of the Department of Finance at the University of Ilorin.
A Knowledge Series Rooted in Ethical Finance
Infoprations said the series will provide structured, practical insights into halal investment at a time when Nigerians are seeking sustainable, transparent, and inclusive financial options.
“The SimplyHalal community is our dedicated platform for guiding both Muslims and non-Muslims into ethical wealth creation,” Dr Adebiyi Rasheed, a Principal Consultant at Infoprations explained in a statement. “This knowledge series goes beyond technical finance, it emphasizes values, literacy, and practical tools for building financial resilience.”

Beyond Faith: Ethical Finance for All
Although grounded in Islamic principles, the series is designed to resonate broadly with audiences seeking alternatives to exploitative or speculative financial systems. Organizers point out that halal finance shares much in common with global movements for responsible, sustainable, and socially conscious investing.
“Halal finance is about fairness, avoiding harmful practices, and promoting transparency. These values are universally relevant in today’s uncertain economy.”
Leveraging Digital Platforms
The event is being powered by Cowrywise, a Nigerian fintech platform that has become a leader in democratizing investment opportunities. By holding the session online, Infoprations is ensuring broad access for participants across Nigeria and beyond, regardless of location.
For Infoprations, “the collaboration with Cowrywise reflects its dual commitment to digital transformation and ethical finance. The organization has been active in research and capacity building across governance, digital infrastructure, and economic inclusion. The SimplyHalal unit extends this mission by applying those priorities to the field of faith-informed investment,” the statement adds.
Analysts suggest that Infoprations’ SimplyHalal approach is different. Rather than focusing narrowly on financial instruments, the new series promises to provide continuous education, connecting faith, ethics, and practical strategies for poverty reduction.
Relevance Amid Economic Struggles
With Nigeria grappling with inflation, high unemployment, and rising poverty levels, the timing of the series appears strategic. By positioning halal investment as a tool for both financial empowerment and ethical responsibility, Infoprations hopes to attract households, students, entrepreneurs, and small business owners.
Registration for the webinar is free, underscoring the organization’s commitment to accessibility. Participants will learn not just about investment products but also about the mindset and principles required for long-term financial independence.
With the backing of Infoprations, the expertise of Dr. Jimoh, and the technological support of Cowrywise, the SimplyHalal Knowledge Sessions may set a new standard for how Nigerians learn about and engage with halal finance.
“Ultimately, our goal is empowerment,” Infoprations noted. “When people align their values with their financial decisions, they not only build wealth—they build resilience and dignity.”
