RIBA

The

interest which you give to increase the wealth of


people, will have no increase with Allah: But that which
you lay out for charity, seeking favor of Allah (He will
increase): it is these who will get a recompense
multiplied.
Ar Rum 39 (First Revelation)

55

RIBA
(Interest)

Because of their abuse, we forbade the Jews good things

which were formally allowed to them: because time after


time they debarred others from the path of Allah: Since they
practice Riba although they were forbidden and cheat others
of their possessions. We have prepared a painful torment for
those of them who disbelieve.
An Nisa 160-161 (Second Revelation)

57

RIBA
(Interest)

Those who devour Riba shall rise up before Allah like men whom
Shaitan has demented by his touch: for they claim that trading is
like usury. But Allah has permitted trading and forbidden usury. He
that receives an admonition from his Rabb and mends his ways may
keep what he has already earned: his faith is in the hand of Allah.
But he that pays no heeds shall be among the people of fire and
shall remain in it forever.
Al-Baqarah 275 (Fourth Revelation)

print of Islam, declared: Interest claim in respect of

everyone will take Riba and if he does not do so, its
dust/smoke will reach him.

Majah)

Economics
What is Economics?
To utilize the limited resources in a way that maximum

needs

members of
the human society.

82

Economics
Problems Faced by Economy:
Determination of Priorities
Allocation of Resources (land, Labor, Capital, Entrepreneur)
Distribution of Wealth / Income
Development

We will compare how Capitalism, Socialism and Islamic


Economic
System addresses to these
problems.

83

Determination of Priorities
(Problem 01)

Capitalism

Every Individual has an

unconditional and absolute


right to participate in any
business to maximize
profits.
Concept of selfish interest.

Supply & Demand will

determine the priorities.

Socialism

No individual has the right

to participate in any
business independently.

State will determine the

priorities as per the overall


planning.
Concept of collective

interest.
84

Allocation of Resources
(Problem 02)
Capitalism
Market force will decide

where to invest resources.

Socialism

Govt. will decide where to

allocate resources

85

Development
(Problem 03)
Capitalism

Market forces will decide

Socialism
Govt. will decide

86

Distribution of Income
(Problem 04)
Socialism

Capitalism
Land

Labor
Capital
Entrepreneur
Profit

Rent
Wages
Interest
-

Land Rent fixed by Govt.


Labor Wages fixed by

Govt.

87

Right to Wealth
Capitalism
Right to wealth is with the

factors of production only

Socialism
Right to wealth with the

Govt. which then


distributes it among the
factors of production

88

Flaws of Capitalism
No bindings / restrictions while maximizing profits.
Blindly follows market forces that creates exploitation of

labor and poor people.

No moral values limitations


Monopolies are created that exploit the society as a whole.
Govt. & Industrialists join hands for mutual benefits and

make laws that exploit common people.

Imbalance in the distribution of Income due to which

concentration of wealth takes place.

89

Flaws of Socialism
The other extreme of not even giving the natural

freedom.
Perfect planning is assumed to be the Cure of all ills.
Govts. are assumed to be the angels which cant commit

a deliberate mistake.
Can not work without a forceful dictatorship.
Creates overall inefficiency in the society. There is no

incentive to work efficiently as there is no individual


profit motive.
90

Economics
Capitalism:
Freedom of business
Law of supply & Demand helps
Resources (land, labor & capital) will be used
Competition will force to improve, create and gain

maximum.
Distribution of wealth among producers of wealth only
(law of supply & demand will help to decide their share)

If everything belongs to Allah, then He decides to share your

wealth with others (their right) through:

Zakaat
Khiraaj
Ushr
Sadaqah
Kaffarah
Sacrifice / Qurbaani
Wirasaat
98

Summary of the Comparison


Capitalism:
gives unbridled and un conditional right
to profit motive and private ownership.
Socialism: goes to other extreme by assuming that perfect
planning by the Govt. is the cure of all ills.
Islam:
gives a balance view among the two extremes
by recognizing the right to private ownership, market forces
and profit motive but the restrictions of:
-Halal & Haram

-Govt. restrictions

-Moral values

Islam ensures equitable distribution of wealth through the

concept of primary ownership of Allah and secondary


ownership of factors of production.

Muzaribah:

Islamic Trade & Finance


Conditions of Musharikah:
Partners must do the Ijab-o-Qubool
Musharikha must be done in existing and acceptable
currencies. If it is in shapes of commodities/goods, then the
price estimation (appraisal) of those goods must be made in
the beginning of the agreement.

currencies must be mixed up completely to avoid confusion.
In that case, everybody will be careful in the business in
spending, and will not think/worry of his share of investment.
According to Imam Sarkhasee rt, it is a condition for an
Agreement, that it must be in written form with all and clear
details to avoid confusion and problems in the future.

Holy Quran:
O Believers, when you make any deal of Loan for some
certain time, write it down.
(Al Baqarah, 2: 282)

Islamic Trade & Finance


Types of Musharikah (Partnership):
Shirkat-e-Mufawazah
Shirkat-e-Annan
Shirkat-e-Sanai
Shirkat-e-Wujooh

Shirkat-e-Mufawazah:
It is that type of Partnership, where all the partners are

equal in sharing investment, sharing business


responsibilities, Sharing Profit & Loss etc.
(In Arabic, Mufawazah means equality)

Islamic Trade & Finance


Shirkat-e-Annan: If any or all the partners are not equal in sharing

business investment, Business Responsibilities, Profit & Loss Sharing ratio,


then this type of partnership is called Shirkat-e-Annan. In this type of
partnership, every partner is considered the Wakeel of other but not
Kafeel.
E-g: each partner will take the business responsibilities and will do his job
but whatever decisions He/She makes while running this business like
taking loans, making deals (buying / selling), etc. He will be all alone
responsible for it unless agreed by others or based on unanimous
decisions.

Shirkat-e-Sannai: (Company), that type of partnership where two or few


businessmen of similar business run their businesses with collaboration /
jointly on the basis of partnership and share their ratio of Profit & Loss.
It is also called Shirkat-e-Taqabbul. It means two same business
professionals made partnership on a condition that both of them will do
the same job and whatever profit gained will be shared. It is also called
Shirkat-ul-Abdaan.

Islamic Trade & Finance


Shirkat-ul-Wujooh:
A partnership based on the goodwill / trust of individuals,
not based on any share of investment. They do business
only on credit basis based on their goodwill in the market.
All partners must be equal in sharing Profit & Loss.
Different ratio of Profit is not allowed.
It is also called Shirkat-uz-Zaman and Shirkat-ul-Mufalees

Islamic Trade & Finance


Muzaribah: Muzaribat is a type of business where one party
provides the full investment and the other provides its
professional business services and the profit share is divided
with mutual understanding.
This word Muzaribat came out from word Zarbun. It

means steping on ground, walking etc. In this business,


Muzarib walks on the ground for other, thats why he is called
Muzarib and this business is called Muzaribah. Some Imams
call it Qarraaz.

Holy Quran:

And there are some people, who walks on the ground (earth)

and seek the provision (Rizq) of Allah.


(Surah Muzammil, Chp: 29: V: 20)

Islamic Trade & Finance


Purpose:
Muzaribah is allowed to reduce the gap between poor and

rich. An individual, who is financially strong but cant run the


business either because of having no time, or no experience
or no awareness of the market. On the other side, there are
individuals, who are financially not strong but very skilled
and experienced in some certain business. So they can take
the investment from rich and run the business.
Islam has allowed this type of business for the benefit of

poor & rich, skilled & non skilled.

Another wisdom behind it is, Money will always be

circulated in the market. Public will take more economical


benefits in shape of having more jobs opportunities,
higher competition and lower prices of the products etc.

Islamic Trade & Finance


Muzaribah by Prophet pbuh:
Prophet pbuh did that form of business with Khadija rt
Goods were taken to the market of Busra (Syria)
Agreed profit sharing ratio were 50% for each.
Slave Maysera were joined as an Auditor
Sahaba rt did that kind business in their time as well.
All Imams and scholars consider it one of the most

favorable business of Islam.

Islamic Trade & Finance


Conditions of Muzaribah:
Rab-ul-Maal must make all the investment in cash form

even goods are provided.


Investment must be provided by Rab-ul-Maal only.

Otherwise it will be counted partnership (Musharikah).

Islamic Trade & Finance


Authorities & Responsibilities of Muzarib:
Investment of Rab-ul-Maal is like an Amanat (Trust) with

Muzarib. Therefore, if loss occurs in the business, Rab-ulMaal cant demand for the recovery of his investment from
Muzarib.
In Muzaribah, the position of Muzairb is like the custodian of
the investment of Rab-ul-Maal. Therefore, he is always
bound to take the suggestions, advice, permission of Rabul-Maal in making decisions.
Muzarib is not allowed to take any salary from the business.
If he is traveling outside, he is allowed to take the daily
traveling wages / allowance and other cost etc. According
to Imam Abu Hanifa, he is also allowed to take medical
charges from the business in case of sickness.
Muzarib will get his profit share only. If he crosses his limits
of the agreed agreement of Muzaribah, he will be
responsible/liable for all loss/liabilities.
Muzarib will always divide the share of the profit in the
presence of Rab-ul-Maal. It is the opinion of all Imams.

Islamic Trade & Finance


Cancellation of Muzaribah:
According to Imam Abu Hanifa rt and Imam Shaif rt.:

Muzaribah can be canceled any time just by giving a


notice to the other party.
It can be cancelled at the death of any partner. if the

inheritors want to renew or continue this agreement, it


is allowed in Islam.

MUZARIBAH
Features of Muzaribah:
Investment from (one party) Rab-ul-Maal only.
No participation in business or management
All loss must be suffered by Rab-ul-Maal only.
Rab-ul-Maal must carry all liabilities of Business
All assets will be the property of Rab-ul-Maal

137

MUZARIBAH

MUZARIBAH AL MUQAYYIDAH:
-Investment for a specified business only

MUZARIBAH AL MUTALLAKAH:

138

MUZARIBAH
NOTE:
All four Imams agree that no salary will be given to Muzarib

on his/her services.

According to Imam Ahmed rt, compensation for daily food

allowance can be given.

According to Ahnaf, compensation for daily food can be

given only,
if the Muzarib travels out of town.

139

Murabihah
Features:
Basically, its not a mode of financing but a source to avoid

interest dealing. It should be used only where Musharaikah


and Muzaribah not workable.
Just using the name of Mark Up or profit instead of

interest does not make it permissible until all the terms


and conditions set by Islamic Jurisprudence are fulfilled.

140

Murabihah

Its not a type of loan but a deal (Bia/Agreement).

Murabihah can be used as a source of financing only


when the client needs funds to purchase any
product/machinery/equipments etc.

The product which is given on Murabihah basis must be


in the possession of owner.

141

Murabihah

Sharing of risk of loss differentiate Murabihah from the


interest category.

It is important for a Murabahah dealing that the product


must be bought from a third party. On buy back basis,
Murabihah deal will not be valid.

Roll Over is not valid in Murabihah.

If the actual cost can not be identified, then Murabihah


deal is not possible. In that case, we must use Bai
Musawamah.

Ahkaam-ul-Buyu
Musallam Feeh (cont):

Note: If the Salam commodity is presented on time and


with all demanding qualities, then the purchaser has no
right to refuse it.

Ahkaam-ul-Buyu
Changes in Mabeea before Possession:
Q: If a purchaser wants to resell a commodity/product

before getting its possession, is it permissible?

Ans: There are two Kinds of Mabeea:

Moveable (e-g) Fruit, Wheat, Garments etc

Non Moveable (e-g) House, Land, Property etc

Ahkaam-ul-Buyu

Moveable Goods:

(1). If Mabeea consists of those items which are


transferable
from one place to another then the (resale) Bai of these
kind of
Products is not allowed.

Hadith:

It is narrated by Abdullah Bin Umar rt that Prophet pbuh


has forbidden of reselling goods on the spot where it was
purchased.
(Abu Dawood, Kitab-ul-Biyou)

Ahkaam-ul-Buyu

(2) Another logic of its prohibition is: In case of loss or


damage to Mabeea, there is a chance of cancellation
or rejection of Bai. E-g: if the goods are lost or
damaged in the possession of first purchaser before
giving possession to the second purchaser, then the
Bai will be considered void. Thats why it is prohibited
to resell it before getting the full possession.
(ref: Al Hidaya, Chp. Kitab-ulBuyou)

Ahkaam-ul-Buyu
If the goods are in weight or in sacks etc, and the purchaser gets its

possession, then the resale is allowed after weighting it properly.


This law specifically works in the dealing of Wheat & other crops etc.

Hadith:
According to the Hadith of Prophet pbuh, He has prohibited the
reselling of crop without re measuring. (weight age of seller & then
weight age of purchaser for reselling)
(Sunnan Ibn Maaja, Kitab-ul-Buyou)

If the goods are purchased with proper guesture, then the

consumption is allowed before its measuring in wt. because in that


case, the excess will be the right of purchaser. E-g: if Mr. A.
purchases a heap of Wheat for Rs. 1000 with an estimated wheat of
100 Kg. then before re measuring it, consumption in it is allowed.
Because any increase or decrease of quantity will be the property of
purchaser. He has purchased the heap of wheat, not exactly 100 Kg
of wheat.

Ahkam-ul-Buyu
If Mabees is such a commodity which needs to be counted in

units (e-g) Eggs, Fruits, clothes etc, in that case consumption is


allowed according to Imam Abu Yousef and Imam Mohammad rt.
But Imam Abu Hanifa wants it to counted again for consumption.

Non Moveable Goods:


Non moveable goods like House, Property, Land can be resold

before getting its possession and can be rented out as well.


(This is according to Imam Abu Hanifa and Imam Abu Yousef
rt).
Imam Mohammad rt is an opinion of taking possession first.

Ijarah
Features:
Lessor stays as owner and the lessee has the right to use

the item/good.

Leasing is not permissible for consumable goods.


Lessor will be responsible for all liabilities related to that

property/good etc like taxes. Lessee will be responsible for


those liabilities only, which can be used/benefited while
using that good/item etc. like Bills, etc.

156

Ijarah

Risk of loss of that property/good will stay with lessor. If


Lessee is responsible for any Loss/damage, he/she has to
afford it.

Leasing Time, Duration, Rent etc must be decided in the


beginning of the contract.

Lessor cant increase the percentage/share of rent by


himself.

157

Salam
Conditions:
It is necessary to pay the lump sum amount in the

beginning of Bai Salam contract.

Salam is permissible only on those items which can be

quantified or measured.

Salam is not valid for a specific farm/land/garden etc.


The product must be identified, quantified clearly with all

qualities.

The date of delivery, time, and the place must be

mentioned clearly.

158

Istisna
Features:
Not necessary to pay the amount in Advance like Bai Salam
Price must be decided in the beginning of the contract
Qualities, features of that product must be clearly

identified

159

Istisna

Canceling Istisna:
one party can cancel the Istisna deal by giving notice to the

other before starting production/purchasing etc


if the production/work has already started, then it cant be

cancelled from one side.

160

Difference between
Istisna & Salam
Istisna
Istisna is permissible for any

item / commodity which need


to be produced / manufactured.

In Istisna, advance payment is

not necessary.

In Istisna, it could be cancelled,


if the production is not started
yet.
Date, Time of delivery does not

Salam
But in Salam, it could or

could not be. Or Subject


can be anything.

In Salam, it is necessary to
make full payment in
advance.
In Bai Salam, it can not be
cancelled one sided.

have to be fixed.

In Salam, it is the basic


part of the deal.
161

Project Financing
Proposed Methods:

Musharikah
Mudharibah

Basic Principles:
Financing through Musharikah and Mudharibah does not
mean the advancing of money. It means participation in the
business in the case of Musharikah, sharing in the assets of
the business to the extent of the ratio of financing.
An Investor must share the loss incurred by the business to
the extent of his financing.
The partners can determine with mutual consent any ratio of
profit which may differ from the ratio of investment. However
the partner who has excluded himself from the responsibility
of work for the business cannot claim more than the ratio of
his investment.
162

Project Financing
Project Financing:
If the financier wants to finance the whole project, the

form of Mudharibah can come into operation.

If investment comes from both sides, the form of

Musharikah can be adopted. In this case:

If the management is the sole responsibility of one


party, while the investment comes from both, a
combination of musharikah and Mudharibah can be
brought into play according to the rules.

Since it would be a new project, no problem with regard

to the valuation of capital should arise.

163

Project Financing
The distribution of profits according to the normal accounting

standards is not difficult.

If the financier wants to withdraw from the Musharikah, while

the other party wants to continue the business, the later can
purchase the shares of the former at an agreed price. In this
case, the financier may get back the amount he has invested
along with a profit, if the business has earned a profit.

The price of his share would be determined through valuation

of the assets called as constructive liquidation with mutual


consent of the parties.

In the case of loss, however any decrease in the total value of

the assets would be divided between them in the ratio of


their investment.

164

Project Financing
Since financial institutions do not normally want to remain

partner of a specific project for good, they can sell their


share to other partners of the project.

If the sale of the share on one time basis is not feasible for

the lack of liquidity in the project, the share of the financier


can be divided into smaller units and each unit can be sold
after a suitable interval.

Whenever a unit is sold, the share of the financier in the

project is reduced to that extent, and when all the units are
sold, the financier totally comes out of the project.

165

Import Financing
Import Financing:
Conventional Banks charge two types of fee for the

service of letter of credit which the bank provided to the


importer. They are:

Service Charges for the opening an LC


Interest charged on the LCs not opened on full margin.

166

Import Financing

Collecting service charges for this purpose is allowed, but

as interest cannot be charged in any case, scholars have


proposed two methods for financing LCs.
These methods are:
Musharikah
Morabihah

167

Import Financing
Musharikah:
The appropriate substitute for LC is Musharikah. Bank and
importer can make an agreement of Mudharbah or Musharikah
while opening LC. If LC is being opened at zero margin then an
agreement of Mudharbah can be made, in which bank will
become Rabb-ul-maal and importer will be regarded as Mudarib.
Bank will own the goods that are being imported and profit will
be distributed according to the agreement.
If LC is being opened at some margin then Musharikah
agreement can be made. Bank will pay the remaining amount
and the goods that are being imported will be owned by both of
them according to their share of investment. Bank and importer,
with their mutual consent can also include a condition in the
agreement, whereby, Musharikah or Mudharibah will end after a
certain time period even if the goods are not sold. In this case,
importer will purchase the banks share at the market price.
168

Import Financing
Murabihah:

At present Islamic banks are using Murabihah to finance

LC. These banks themselves import the required goods


and then sell these goods to the importer on Murabihah
agreement. Murabihah financing requires bank and
importer to sign two agreements separately. One for the
purchase of goods and other for appointing the importer
as the agent of the bank (that is agency agreement).
Once these two agreements are signed, importer can
negotiate and finalize all the terms and conditions with
the exporter on behalf of the bank.

Export Financing
Two important roles of bank in Exports:
They act as a negotiating bank and charge a fee for this

purpose which is allowed in Shariah.

They provide export financing facility to the exporters

and charge interest on this service.

These services are of two types:


Pre Shipment Financing
Post Shipment Financing

171

Export Financing
Pre Shipment Financing:
Pre Shipment Financing can be fulfilled by two methods:

Musharikah
Murabihah

Musharikah:
Bank & Exporter can make an agreement of Musharikah
or Mudharibah, if exporter is not investing, otherwise
Musharikah agreement can be made. Agreement in this
case will be easy, as cost and expected profit is known.
Exporter will manufacture or purchase goods and profit
that will be obtained by exporting, will be distribute
between them according to the pre determined ratio.

172

Export Financing
Problem:
If the exporter is not able to deliver the goods according to

the terms and the conditions of the importer then importer


can refuse to accept the goods and in this case exporters
bank will ultimately suffer.

Solution:
it can be rectified by including a condition in Mudharibah or
Musharikah agreement that if exporter violates the terms and
conditions of import agreement then the bank will not be
responsible for any loss which arises due to this negligence.
This condition is allowed in Shariah as the Rabbul Maal
is not responsible for any loss that arises due to the negligence
of Mudharib.

173

Export Financing
Murabihah:
Murabihah is being used in many Islamic Banks for export

financing. Banks purchase goods that are to be exported at


discounted (less) price than the agreed price between the
exporter and the importer. Bank exports goods at the
original price and thus can earn profit.

Murabihah Financing requires bank and exporter to sign at

least two agreements separately.

One for the purchase of goods


Second one for appointing the exporter as the agent of
the bank

Once these two agreements are signed, the exporter can


negotiate and finalize all the terms and conditions with the
importer on behalf of the bank.
174

Export Financing
Post Shipment Financing:
It is similar to the discounting of Bill of Exchange. Its

alternate Shariah compliant procedure is as follows.

Exporter with Bill of Exchange can appoint bank as his


agent to collect receivable on his behalf. Bank charges
a fee for this service.
Bank can provide interest free loan to the exporter
equal to the amount of bill and exporter will give his
consent to the bank that it can keep the amount
received from the bill as a payment of loan.

175

Export Financing
Here two procedures and
two different agreements will be made.
One will authorize the bank to collect the loan on his

behalf as an agent, for which he will charge a fee.


Second will be for providing interest free loan to the

exporter and authorizing bank for keeping the amount


received through bill as a payment for loan.

This method is valid in Shariah because:


collecting fee for service and giving interest free loan is
permissible in Islam.
176

Loan / Credit
Loan / Credit:
Business is always in need of give and take of loan or credit
dealings. According to Islam, there is no room for charging
interest on Loans. Because poor & week will always be in
need of some favors from each other and it is not allowed
to take the advantage of some ones need
Islam has set few instructions for both Lender & Borrower:
Instructions / Teachings for Lenders
Instructions / Teachings for Borrowers

Loan / Credit
Teachings/Instructions for Lenders:
Islam emphasis, when you lend to your brother and if he is
in crisis, you should give him more time to pay your debts.
And if he is not capable to pay you back neither any hope in
the future then you are demanded to forgive him (and
expect reward from Almighty Allah).

Holy Quran:

And if the borrower (debtor) is in hard time (has no money),

then grant him time till it is easy for him to repay, but if you
remit it by way of charity, that is better for you if you did
but know.
(Al Baqarah, Chp:3: V: 280)

Loan / Credit
Hadith:

If someone among you has a right (loan) on other, and he

provide him more time, there is sadaqah reward for him


on each day.
(By Imran bin Hussain rt, Musnad-e-Ahmad)

The one who wants that Allah save him from the

hardships of the day of Judgment, he should give more


time to his borrower or forgive his rights (loan).
(Muslim, Kitaab-ul-Buyu)

Loan / Credit
Hadith:

It is narrated by Abi Yaseer rt that I heard Prophet pbuh

saying, whosoever give flexibility (more time) to a


person in crisis (about his loan) or forgive his debts,
Allah will provide him His own shade on the day of
Judgment.
(Muslim, Kitab-ul-Buyu)

Loan / Credit
It is also stated in many Ahadith that Prophet pbuh

demanded the lender to talk to the borrowers and others


while dealing for loan in a very soft and polite manner. E-g:

May Allah show his mercy on that person, he whenever

sells, buys or demands for his loan, deals in a polite and


kind/nice manners.

(Bukhari, Kitaab-ul-Buyu)

Loan / Credit
Instructions / Teachings for Borrowers:
Islam also forces borrower to pay his loan/debts full and on
time unless there is any genuine excuse. Otherwise he will
be responsible in the sight of Allah.
Borrowing and Lending is actually an agreement between

the parties and the conditions must be fulfilled by both


sides. If the Lender demands for his loan ahead of time or
borrowers doesnt pay on time, then according to the Holy
Quran, they are breaking the commandment of Almighty
Allah.

Holy Quran:

Certainly about the Agreement, it will be questioned.

Loan / Credit
If the borrower does not pay his debts without any reason /

excuse, It is considered an Offense (Zulm) by Prophet pbuh.

Prophet pbuh did not use to lead the funeral prayer of a

person, who intentionally ignore to pay his debts.

Hadith:

The leftover debt of a rich is Zulm.

(Agreed Upon)

Loan / Credit
Hadith:

It is narrated by Salma bin Akwaa rt, once we were sitting with

Prophet pbuh. A funeral were brought. He was asked to lead the


prayer. Prophet pbuh asked, is there any debt due on him. It was said,
No. then he lead the prayer. Then another funeral was brought. He
asked, is there any debt due on him. It was replied. Yes. He asked,
does he leave anything. It was replied, yes, three Dinaars. Then the
debt is paid through these Dinaars and he led the prayer. Then a third
funeral is brought. He asked, is there any debt due on him. It was
replied, Yes. He asked. Did he leave anything. Sahaba rt said, No. He
then said, Lead and offer the prayer of your brother. Abu Qatadah rt
said,
O Prophet of Allah, lead the prayer, I will pay his debts.
(Bukhari)

Loan & Credit


After concoring Makkah, Prophet pbuh use to pay the debts

of poor by himself and then use to lead the funeral prayers.


In this regard, he had announced:
When Allah opened the doors of victories for him, he

announced: I am dearer to Muslims more than their souls.


Whosoever dies among them, and leave the debts behind.
I am responsible/liable for it. And those who leaves behind
any wealth, it belongs to his inheritors.
(Bukhari)

On another accasion, he said, whosoever dies and debt is

due on him and he leaves nothing behind. I am


liable/responsible for his debts/dues.
(Bukhari)

Loan & Credit


These Ahadith proves that if the debtor dies without paying

his dues and he leave nothing behind then it becomes the


duty of the Muslim State to pay his dues. It will satisfy the
soul of that poor Muslim as well as the lender will get his
right.

Conclusion:
This Islamic Financial System, provides:

Benefits to Poor
Service & Flexibility to Rich
Loaning Facility to every Individual
Financial Security to the Lenders
Security Guarantee by State
Smooth running of the Financial & Economic System

Loan / Credit
Prophet pbuh called the debt of a person an unforgivable

crime as it is mentioned in many Ahadith. He even said about


the martyrs, that they will be questioned too.

All sins of a Martyr will be forgiven but debt.

(Muslim, Kitaab-ul-Buyu)

It is narrated by Shareed rt that Prophet pbuh said, the

excuses of the one, who is capable of paying his dues


make his honor and punishment permissible.
(Abu Dawood & NasaiI, Kitaab-ul-Buyu)

According to Ibn Mubarak..


Muslim Qazi / Judge is allowed/permitted to sell out the

property of the debtor in the market to get his loans paid.

Loan / Credit

Islam emphasis borrower/debtor to pay not only on time

but pay more than their actual dues.


It should be on unconditional basis neither without any

expectation of benefit otherwise it will turn into Riba.

Loan / Credit
Hadith:

It is narrated by Abu Hurairah rt, that one person demanded

Prophet pbuh for his loan and he talked harshly with him. The
companions of Prophet pbuh tried to teach him some manners.
Prophet pbuh said, leave him alone. He has the right to talk.
Buy a camel for him. Companions rt said, O Prophet of Allah,
we are capable to get a better camel in age than this. He
replied. Ok. Get a better one and give it to him. The best
among you is he, who pays back good.
(Muslim,
Kitaab-ul-Buyu)

Loan / Credit
Hadith:

It is narrated by Abu Rafee rt, that Prophet pbuh took a

young camel from a person as a loan. Then he received few


camels of Sadaqah. Abu Rafee rt says, Prophet pbuh ordered
me that I should give one young camel to that person. I said,
I see all these camels better & with four teeth than this one
(Young). He replied, OK, give that one to him. Best among
human beings is one, who pays back his dues in good/better
shape. (Mishkaat)

Loan / Credit
Hadith:

It is narrated by Jabir rt that Prophet pbuh owed me some

loan. He paid it back in full as well as some more.


(Mishkaat)

Loan / Credit
Hadith:

It is narrated by Abdullah Bin Rabeea rt that Prophet pbuh took

loan from me of forty thousand. When he received the


goods/Maal (Sadaqah or Ghaneemat), he returned it to me and
said as well. May Allah bless your family and your wealth.
Certainly the return of the loan is thanks and then return of
loan.
(Mishkaat)
This Hadith shows that the least level of paying your debt is

thanking the lender for his favor while returning your loan.

Loan / Credit
Rahan (Security):
Islam allows the lender to demand for a Rahan (security) from
the borrower before giving any loan.
Terms & Conditions:
Major conditions of Rahan are as follows:
The Profit & Loss of the Marhona (Pledged) thing is the

responsibility of the owner. Temporary benefits will fall in the


favors of Murtahin (Pledger) as a fee for his services to that
pledged item. Long term or permanent benefits will be the right
of the owner.
E-g: Mr. Umer pledge his cow to Mr. Ali as a security against his loan
from Mr Ali. Now this cow will be considered as an Amanat (Trust). Now
if the cow, dies or stolen. It is the loss of Mr. Umer. if she begets a
baby------------, it also will belongs to Mr. Umer. But Mr. Ali can use the
milk of that cow as a fee for his services of keeping and feeding the
cow.

Loan / Credit
Hadith:

It is narrated by Abu Hurairah rt that Prophet pbuh said, on riding

animals, it is allowed to ride as a fee for spending on it when it is


pledged as a security. Just like that, the milk of a milking animal can
be use as a fee of spending on it, when it is kept as a security. The one
who rides, who drinks the milk. They are responsible for their
expenses (food, service etc) (Bukhari)

It is narrated by Saeed bin Musayib ra that Prophet pbuh said,

Pledged/Secured thing can not stop its owner. For him, there are
benefits and there are losses as well.
(Mishkat, by Imam
Shafi ra)
This Hadith shows, that the taxes or if there is right of other in this pledged

thing will be paid by the owner.

Loan / Credit
Taking benefits from those pledged animals are allowed

whether used for ridings or milking (as a fee of services


provided for them). Taking benefits from other pledged
items like house, shop, jewellery are not allowed. If they
are rented out (with the permission of owner), then this
rent will be given to the owner.
Same Law applies to the agricultural land. If the Murtahin

cultivates it, he will get his share according to the share of


the cultivator. If he transfer it to someone else for
cultivation on Bataii. Then this Bataii will be paid to the
owner.

Loan / Credit
Bankruptcy: If a person files the bankruptcy due to his sever
financial crisis. Scholars have mentioned few laws for that
Bankrupt. Which are summarized below:
Bankrupt can be set free from his debts/dues due to filing the

bankruptcy. Court will recover the dues for the lender even by
selling his property.

Hadith: it is narrated by Abdur Rehman bin Kaab bin Malik rt that Muaaz

rt was a very charitable young person. He did not keep savings. He use
to take loans for charities until his whole wealth/property was pledged.
He came to Prophet pbuh and requested him to talk to the lenders. If the
lenders would be able to forgive Muaaz rt but they did not do so. Then
Prophet pubh started selling out his stuff/goods for the lenders until
Muaaz rt stood up empty handed.
(Mishkaat)

Loan /& Credit


If the lender sees his own maal/good/item with debtor, he must take

it back. E-g:

It is narrated by Abu Hurairah rt that Prophet pbuh said, whosoever

becomes bankrupt and the lender sees his real good with him. He
has the most right to get it back.
(Agreed Upon)

If the lenders are more than one, then the court can take the assets

of debtor and will distribute among the lenders according to their


percentage. E-g:

It is narrated by Abu Saeed Khudri rt that at the time of Prophet

pbuh, one person bought fruits and made loss in it. He became
bankrupt. Prophet pbuh addressed the people to pay him sadaqah.
People paid sadaqah to him. But it was not sufficient to pay his
debts in full. Then Prophet pbuh said to the lenders, take what you
get and nothing you will get more than this. (Muslim)

Loan / Credit
If the person gets bankrupt, then all the assets, he keeps in

his possession are no longer belong to him. He doesnt


have the right to use them. Court can do inhibitation / stop
him of using those assets.

Hadith:

Kaab bin Malik rt narrates from his father that Prophet

pbuh has stopped Muaaz bin Jabal rt of using his


assets/goods and then sold it out to pay for his dues.
(Abu Dawood, Dar Kutni)

Islamic Ways of Insurance


Conventional Insurance Principles
Pooling of Risk
Payment of fortuitous loss
Risk Transfer
Indemnification
Profit for the share holders from underwriting results

and investments

199

Islamic Ways of Insurance


Why NO to conventional Insurance?
Is something wrong with the concept?

Risk Aversion
Assuring others
Risk sharing

Q:
What is wrong with the practice?
Ans:
The contract between the insurer and the
insured is
technically wrong from the Shariah
perspective because of:
Gharar & Riba

200

Islamic Ways of Insurance


Gharar:
Lexically it means uncertainty and technically it means the

uncertainty of the counteract or the subject matter or the


period
in a commutative contract.

The element of Gharar in the commercial insurance

contract
The insurer does not know how much he would owe to an
individual.

Some times an insured does not know either how much


he would pay ultimately to the insurer

In case of no claim from the insured in general


insurance, then Qimar emerges.
201

Islamic Ways of Insurance


Riba in Commercial Insurance:
Direct Riba

Excess on one side in case of exchange between the


amount of premium and the sum insured

Indirect Riba

The interest earned on interest based investments

202

Islamic Ways of Insurance


The concept of Takaful:
Features:

Taburro (contributions) from the participants (Policy


Holders) to create a fund which will provide financial
help at the occurrence of certain losses
Partnership among the participants
Need of an operator
The management contract between the participants
and the operator
Investments in Shariah compliant modes

203

Islamic Ways of Insurance


Different Models:
Pure Mudharabah Model:

The participants and the operator enter into an Mudahrabah contract


from the beginning of the relation, for indemnification and share of
the underwriting results

Wakalah Model (hybrid of wakalah & Mudarabah):

An agency agreement is made between an individual willing to


participate in the fund and the operator working as the manager of
the fund. The operator earns an upfront deductible fee and shares
the profit of investments, it does not share the results of
underwriting.

Wakalah based on Waqf:

The share holders create a waqf fund to extend the help to those who
want to cover against financial loss. The participants contribute to
the fund and the operator manages the fund. All under writing
results belong to the fund which itself has a legal entity.
204

Pricing
Price setting (Taseer) is prohibited according to all Imams/scholars.
According to Hanabala, famous scholars like Shamsuddin abul firaaj Abdul
Rehman bin Abu Bakr writes :
The ruler has no right to decide the prices for the products of

basic needs. Leave It on the public, however they are willing to


sell it.
Imam Shafi rt has the same opinion.

According to the scholars of Ahnaaf, their opinion is mentioned by

Marghenai rt in his book Al Hidaya with those wording:

It is not appropriate for the ruler to bound the public on controlled prices
because Prophet pbuh said, do not decide prices because Allah decides it,
He creates ease and difficulties and He sustains. And also that, information
of price is the right of the seller therefore, only he can decide it and state
should not interfere in their rights. But if for the purpose of public benefit,
it is required, then is acceptable. If the merchants start charging higher
price of basic needs items and the judge can not defend the benefits of
public but by fixing the state controlled prices of those items then with the
opinions of other skilled and experts, it is allowed.
(Al Hidaya,
Baab Al Karahiya)

Masail of Profit
Ghaban-e-Fahish:
It means invalid profit. Islam does not restrict the limit

of profit but does not accept the Ghaban-e-Fahish either.


Normally the seller takes the advantage of buyer

because of his need for the Mabeea. Islam has


forbidden of taking this kind advantage of the need of
the buyer.

Masail of Profit
Q:
Q:

Can a limit be assigned for a Ghaban-e-Fahish?


What is the order about the Bai of a Ghaban-e-Fahish.

Ans: Scholars have different opinion in assigning the limit

for Ghaban-e-Fahish.

According to the scholars of Ahnaaf, Ghaban-e-Fahish is

such price which is beyond or above the expected market


price of the public.
E-g: If a product is purchased on Rs 100. and the similar
product through known individuals, offered to the buyer of a
less price than Rs. 100 like 60 or 80 or 70 etc. Nobody made a
guess of Rs 100. Then this already charged price Rs. 100 for the
same product will be considered Ghaban-e-Fahish. This deal can
be cancelled and the product can be returned.

Masail of Profit
Shafi school of thought has the same opinion.
According to Maliki school of thought, Ghaban-e-Fahish

will be considered when the product is sold on at least


1/3rd less or high price than the total of market price. (it
means discounted price or profit margin should not
exceed than the 1/3rd of the total price of the market).
Maliki school of thought put two conditions as well:

No consumption should be made in the Mabeea

Deal (Sale / Purchase must be less than one year old


(Kitab-ul-Fiqh aala Mazahib ul Arbaa, vol 2, Kitab-ul-Buyu)

Masail of Profit
Summary of Ghaban-e-Fahish:
Profit must be limited within the normal buying and

affordable capacity of public.


According to Maliki scholars, it should not be higher

than the 1/3rd of the total market price of the product.


Govt. can impose restrictions on seller for charging

higher profit and can set a punishment rules for them .

Hadith:

Samra bin Jundab rt narrates, that Prophet peace be upon

him use to order us that we must take the zakat out from our

It is narrated by Abu Zar Ghaffari rt. I heard Prophet peace be

upon him saying, there is zakat in camels, there is zakat in


goats and sheeps and there is zakat in clothes.

Note: Here clothes means those peaces of clothes, which are


purchased for the business purpose. It clearly shows that
there is zakat due on commercial goods.
(Ibn Hazam, V: 5, P: 34-35)

Zakat

Abu Amr bin Hamas rt narrates through his father rt that

once Umer rt passed by me and said, O Hamas rt, pay zakat


of your maal. I said, I have nothing but covers of arrows and

said, there is no zakat on goods except which is purchased


for commercial purposes.
(Abu Ubaid Qasim bin Salam rt, Kitab ul Amwaal,

Zakat
Important Masail of Zakat:
Zakat is due on commercial goods only.
If the goods are purchased for personal use and then planned
to sell them out. It will be counted as commercial goods then
but the calculation time will start from the day, it will be
practiced.
No zakat is due on machinery, building, houses, equipments,
furniture etc
Zakat will be due on the rent received after a whole lunar
calendar is passed.
Zakat will not be due on the machinery of factories or mills
but on the manufactured goods as well as on raw material.
Zakat will be due on shares after the whole lunar calendar is
passed.
If some one has cash, gold, silver and commercial goods all
together. He will make the appraisal of all of them and will
pay the zakat at the end of the year. This is the opinion of
Imam Abu Hanifa rt, Imam Shafi rt, Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal
rt and Imam AuzaiI rt.
