Hi Waqayan,

I would recommend for you to consider the Certified Shari'a Adviser and Auditor (CSAA) from the  AAOIFI

There are several certificates in market. I suggest to have a certain selection strategy based on need. For example, if you are already in Islamic financial industry, You need just to go to short courses. In contrast, if you are still out the industry, it is good to select a long deep program to expose you to whole system.
