The challenges can be classified in to fundamental and functional categories. Achieving a comprehensive and appropriate solution requires that challenges be studied in both juridical and accounting aspects. Regarding to the lack of sufficient literature about Islamic accounting, this research will be processed via Mixed-explanatory method.
