This study aims to explore the role of Islamic Legal Maxims (Qawaid-ul-Fiqh) as catalysts for transforming banking system in Pakistan from conventional to Islamic.
Qualitative approach has been employed using secondary data gathered from Classical texts, previous literature, and contemporary academic texts. To analyze the data, qualitative content analysis was applied.

Besides identified barriers and challenges, the study has enlightened the regulatory gaps, interest of stakeholders, and public misconceptions. The findings of this study contribute to offer actionable insights for financial institutions, policy makers, and academia.
To the best of researcher's knowledge, very limited research work is carried out on the applications of Islamic Legal Maxims to address the issues thoroughly facing by Islamic banking sector, particularly relating these maxims to the conversion process of conventional banking to Islamic banking.
