At the early years of the new millennium, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has ratified two ten programs of action in order to meet political, economic, cultural and religious challenges in the Muslim nation and its relation with the international community. First ten-year program of action (TYPOA) terminated at 2015 and second ten program has been approved for 2016 to 2025. This article aims to present the effect of these two TYPOA of OIC on international and regional peace and security. It concluded that these programs are considered as steps of OIC towards UN purposes and principles and also it can be added as a kind of peace building process in the OIC member states. From the view point of negative peace, OIC not only was not successful to settle regional conflicts, but it prepared the intervention of great powers in the region. Increasing the disputes between more effective Islamic states lead to more weakness of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation

Abstract Studies on Islamic law potential in international Commerce and Comparative research on ethical code of commerce have increased in recent decades. Two cases brought to English court titled, Shamil Bank of Bahrain v. BeximcoandMusawi v RE International (UK) Ltd (2007) raises the question of how the parties of contract could choose Islamic law to serve as applicable or proper law of the commercial contract and financial disputes. This article tries to review some rules and principles of Islamic Commercial law, such as principle of consent, foredoom of commerce and its limitations and protecting of merchants. It also analysesMamluk Commercial Treaty with Republic of Florence in 1488 and two recent cases brought to English courts based on Glorious Sharia as applicable law and governing law. For comparative study purposes, this article discuses legal and ethical code of commerce in Islamic teaching in order to introduce similar conception in other major legal system. The outcome of this study is that it is necessary for comparative law centers in Islamic countries and International Islamic Fiqh Academy at the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, to introduce Islamic commercial rule and principles in the model commercial law frameworks. This approach will facilitate choices of Islamic law as applicable law and considered a step toward interaction between Islamic and Western legal systems in the realm of commerce.
