Frequently asked questions

What is Murabaha?

Murabaha is a cost-plus sale where the bank buys the asset and sells it to the customer at a disclosed profit margin, paid in installments. The profit is fixed upfront — it is not interest because the bank takes ownership risk.

What is Ijara?

Ijara is an Islamic leasing contract where the bank buys the asset and leases it to the customer for a fixed period. At the end, ownership may transfer to the customer. It is similar to a conventional lease but structured to avoid riba.

What is Musharaka?

Musharaka is a partnership where the bank and customer jointly own an asset. The customer gradually buys out the bank's share. Profits and losses are shared proportionally — it is the most equity-like Islamic finance structure.

Is Islamic finance more expensive?

Not necessarily. The total cost depends on the profit rate, which is often benchmarked to conventional rates. The key difference is the legal structure: Islamic finance avoids interest and requires the bank to take real ownership risk.
