Description
Summary:This project paper was created to see whether the trust of the public can be enhanced if the auditors adopt Islamic ethics and values into their work. Ethics is one of the most important aspect in an auditor that must be upheld in any circumstances. The public trusts in auditors is mainly due to the impartiality of the auditors in performing their duties. However, now there are signs of dishonesty by the auditors especially in giving reports. Although there is no need to change the existing code of ethics, the inculcation of Islamic ethics into the auditors'work may help to redeem the public trust in them.

The present education programme can also provide a foundation for the teaching of Islamic values and ethics. By this way a supply of manpower with strong Islamic ethical knowledge can be produced
