If they are purchased at their face value (Bai
al Dayn), this involves Gharar and hence
prohibited.
However, securities may be assigned to a third
party at par value.The difference between sale
and assignment (HAWALA) is that transfer in
HAWALA is with recourse while transfer in
Sales in without recourse.

certificates can be treated as negotiable
instruments. Certificates can be bought and

Musharakah.

Securitization of Ijarah

Presen of Ijarah
Securitization
It is possible to create a secondary market
instrument for the financiers on the basis of
Ijarah.
The lessor (owner) can sell the leased asset
wholly or partly either to one party or to a
number of individuals to recover his cost of
purchase of the asset with a profit thereon.
This purchase of a proportion of the asset by
each individual may be evidenced by a
certificate, which may be called 'Ijarah
certificate.

Presen of Ijarah
Securitization
Ijarah certificate represents the holder's
proportionate ownership in the leased asset.
The holder will assume the rights and
obligations of the owner/lessor to the extent of
his ownership.
The holder will have the right to enjoy a part
of the rent according to his proportion of
ownership in the asset.

Presen of Ijarah
Securitization
In the case of total destruction of the asset, he
will suffer the loss to the extent of his
ownership.
These certificates can be negotiated and
traded freely in the market and can serve as
an instrument easily convertible into cash.
Essential Condition
Its essential that the Ijarah certificates are
designed to represent real ownership of the
leased assets, and not only a right to
receive rent.
