Abstract

This research aims to provide a detailed and comprehensive analysis of trends and developments in scientometrics and bibliometrics in the sukuk market in order to present global findings and outline new perspectives and practical strategies for the improvement and development of Iran's capital market in this area. In this study, a scientometric analysis of the sukuk domain was conducted on 391 selected documents, using a scientific search method in the Web of Science database, spanning from 2010 to 2023. For this purpose, Biblioshiny, a web-based application using the R language, which includes bibliometric interpolation, was utilized. Prominent journals, authors, countries, papers, and topics were identified through this software workflow, and citation analysis, co-citation, and social network analyses were performed. In the Iran section, papers and books on sukuk were extracted and examined. The findings indicate that the field of sukuk has emerged as a developed domain over time. The bibliometric and scientometric analysis of sukuk in the capital market clarifies the field's conceptual framework and delves into the existing intellectual and social structural patterns. This analysis illustrates the alignment of global experiences with current developments in the sukuk market and emphasizes the importance of suggestions for improving and developing Iran's capital market. Moreover, the current research examines the intellectual and social structures associated with the field and provides insights into its conceptual framework. This research, through the bibliometric and scientometric analysis of the sukuk market, elucidates the developments and intellectual and social patterns in this field and effectively contributes to the development of knowledge and improvement of Iran's capital market by offering suggestions based on global experiences.
