Basic of Islamic Banking
An Islamic banking and financial system is a rule-based system comprising a set of
rules and laws, collectively referred to as Sharia’ governing economic, social,
political and cultural aspects of Muslim societies.
Sharia originates from:
- The Quran (Moslems’ holy book)
- Sunna (prophet Muhammad preaching and practise)
- Ijtihad (the opinion of Islamic jurists on particular issue)
- Ijma (the consensus of the Islamic community on a particular issue)
- Qiyas or analogy (the application of accepted principles by analogy to new cases)
not a source relied upon by all schools
The central tenet of the financial system is the prohibition of Riba – a term literally
meaning “an excess” and interpreted as “any unjustifiable increase of capital
whether through loans or sales”.
Basic of Islamic Banking
Other principles of Islamic doctrine:
- Advocating risk sharing;
- Promotion of entrepreneurship;
- Discouragement of speculative behaviour;
- Preservation of property rights;
- Transparency; and
- The sanctity of contractual obligations.
The system can be fully appreciated only in the context of Islam’s teachings on the
work ethic, wealth distribution, social and economic justice, and the expected
responsibilities of the individual, society, the state and all stakeholders.
Major Modes of Islamic financing
Mudarabah: A form of partnership where one party provides the funds while the
other provides expertise and management. The latter is referred to as the Mudarib.
Any profits accrued are shared between the two parties on a pre-agreed basis,
while loss is borne by the provider(s) of the capital.
Shirkah: A contract between two or more persons who launch a business or
financial enterprise to make profits. In the conventional books of Fiqh, the
partnership business has been discussed under the option of Shirkah that, broadly,
may include both Musharakah and Mudarabah.
Murabaha: Literally it means a sale on mutually agreed profit. Technically, it is a
contract of sale in which the seller declares his cost and the profit. This has been
adopted by Islamic banks as a mode of financing. As a financing technique, it can
involve a request by the client to the bank to purchase a certain item for him. The
bank does that for a definite profit over the cost which is stipulated in advance.
Musawamah: Musawamah is a general kind of sale in which price of the
commodity to be traded is bargained between seller and the purchaser without any
reference to the price paid or cost incurred by the former.
Major Modes of Islamic financing
Musharakah: Musharakah means a relationship established under a contract by
the mutual consent of the parties for sharing of profits and losses in the joint
business. It is an agreement under which the Islamic bank provides funds which
are mixed with the funds of the business 6 enterprise and others. All providers of
capital are entitled to participate in management, but not necessarily required to do
so. The profit is distributed among the partners in pre-agreed ratios, while the loss
is borne by every partner strictly in proportion to respective capital contributions.
Bai‘ Muajjal: Literally it means a credit sale. Technically, a financing technique
adopted by Islamic banks that takes the form of Murabaha Muajjal. It is a contract
in which the seller earns a profit margin on his purchase price and allows the buyer
to pay the price of the commodity at a future date in a lump sum or in instalments.
He has to expressly mention cost of the commodity and the margin of profit is
mutually agreed. The price fixed for the commodity in such a transaction can be
the same as the spot price or higher or lower than the spot price.
Bai′ Salam: Salam means a contract in which advance payment is made for goods
to be delivered later on. The seller undertakes to supply some specific goods to
the buyer at a future date in exchange of an advance price fully paid at the time of
contract.
Major Modes of Islamic financing
Leasing (Ijarah, Kira'): Letting on lease. Sale of a definite usufruct of any asset
in exchange of definite reward. It refers to a contract of land leased at a fixed rent
payable in cash and also to a mode of financing adopted by Islamic banks. It is an
arrangement under which the Islamic banks lease equipments, buildings or other
facilities to a client, against an agreed rental.
Operating Lease (Ijarah-wal-Iqtina‘): A mode of financing, by way of Hirepurchase, adopted by Islamic banks. It is a contract under which the Islamic bank
finances equipment, building or other facilities for the client against an agreed
rental together with a unilateral undertaking by the bank or the client that at the
end of the lease period, the ownership in the asset would be transferred to the
lessee.

awqaf, and other forms of charities

Sale based and hiring modes (murabahah, salam, ijarah)
Profit-sharing modes (Musharakah and mudarabah)
Islamic Microfinancing
Islamic MFIs-Features (2)

As Islamic modes are sale based the price of the asset is paid (no
deductions are allowed)

group members

of funds)

Less aggressive and use Islamic teachings to recover loans
Islamic MFIs and Sustainability
- Mitigating Credit Risk (CR)
CR mitigated by social collateral (group-based lending)
- Solving Moral Hazard (MH) Problem
As asset/good given instead of Cash, chances of diversion and default
decreases
- Economic Viability
High administrative costs
Reasonable finance costs
- Islamic MFIs can resolve the CR problem and the MH problem, but not
the Economic Viability problem
