Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to outline the parameters of Islamic marketing and the implications that this has on Islamic marketing education; a topic that is largely marginalised in mainstream marketing education and literature. The paper is conceptual in its approach and puts forth a comprehensive course outline for instructors who would like to teach Islamic marketing modules in their consumer behaviour or international marketing courses or teach a stand-alone course in Islamic marketing. Given the conceptual nature of the article, the paper concludes by presenting a full-fledged course outline in Islamic marketing that could prove useful to marketing educators interested in diversity-related topics. The current paper dissects the components of a course outline in Islamic marketing, which include course objectives and learning outcomes as well as sample readings and case studies. This is direly lacking in the literature.

Keywords: Islamic marketing; Islamic marketing education; diversity.
