  • Absolution (ibra') from discretion to regulation: the Malaysian experience

    • Authors: Saleem, Muhammad Yusuf (2016)

  • The paper is a critical examination of the recent judicial and regulatory developments in Malaysia which saw the transition of absolution (ibra') from a discretionary power of the creditor to a mandatory rebate governed by the Central Bank's regulations. It compares and contrasts the Malaysian Regulations on ibra' with the resolutions issued by the Council of the Islamic Fiqh Academy and offers a critical evaluation of juristic opinions on ibra' and da' wata'jjal. The jurisprudential methods of analogy (qiyas) and juristic preference (istihsan) are employed to examine the application of ibra' to long-term home financing contracts. The paper argues that claiming full credit price upon ...

  • Benefitting from a loan (qard) contract: an analysis of juristic opinions

    • Authors: Saleem, Muhammad Yusuf; Abozaid, Abdulazeem (2013)

  • In Islam, a loan (qard) is considered a gratuitous contract, and providing a loan to a person in need is a recommended (mandub) act for which a lender is rewarded. The gratuitous nature of the loan contract is emphasised in various hadiths which also prohibit the lender from deriving any stipulated benefit from the loan he has provided. Loans that generate conditional benefit to the lender are considered usurious. The practice of usury (riba) is inextricably tied to the loan and debt where a lender charges the borrower an additional amount. The main focus of this research paper is to provide a critical discussion on the ruling that prohibits the lender from deriving conditional benefi...

  • Causality between macroeconomic forces, exchange rate and the Shari'ah index: empirical evidence

    • Authors: Yousafzai, Essa Omar (2018)

  • This paper aims to investigate whether Shari'ah stock index, exchange rates and macroeconomic forces in Japan have any long run relationship or not. If the relationship exists, does the Shari'ah stock index lead or lag? The paper is likely to be the first study that investigates the causal relationship of aforementioned variables and the Shari'ah Index in Japan. Current literature on the topic in different countries gives either contradictory or inclusive results. This study will try to fill two gaps, one relating to Japan, and another relating to Islamic Indices. It employed quarterly data from 2007 to 2017. Auto-Regressive Distributed lag (ARDL) time series technique is applied to c...

  • Commodity murabaha: does it violate Islamic norms? Note

    • Authors: Hasan, Zubair (2008)

  • Recently commodity murabaha has run into disrepute due to court decisions going against the use of this instrument in Islamic banks. This brief note argues that at fault has been the structure of contracts and the excessive use of the instrument. In principle, commodity murabaha is doubtless rooted deep in the Islamic Shari'ah.

  • Musharakah, which is translated as 'joint venture or partnership' or 'profit and loss sharing contract' is regarded as an ideal financing contract in Islamic finance. Musharakah has been applied to Islamic banking and Islamic capital market across the world and it is also proposed as one of alternative model in takaful business.

  • Enhancing the application of musharakah through blockchain

    • Authors: Aishath Muneeza; Jin Zichu; Iman Najwa Abdul Razak (2018)

  • Islamic banks are still relying on debt-like modes of financing since most equity based finances need long term commitment. The basic principle of Islamic banking is the sharing of profit and loss and the prohibition of riba (interest).Additionally, PLS arrangements have been specifically acknowledged as ideal modes of financing in Islamic finance. But to date, the actual practice of Islamic banking has been far removed from these models. Nearly all Islamic banks, investment companies, and investment funds offer trade and project finance based on mark-up, commissioned manufacturing, or on leasing bases. There is not much difference in substance between IFIs and conventional financial ...

    • Authors: Al Raisi, Al Khansa Sulaiman Dawood; Rodriguez, Imelda; Tustikbayev, Miras; Omarova, Nazerke; Abdul Rahman, Waleeda; Muneeza, Aishath (2016)

  • This article aims at examining the concept of Hawalah and its contemporary applications in banking sector. For this purpose, the authors examine the conceptual and literal meaning of Hawalah and scrutinise its applications in two Malaysian banks. While Bank A is a dual bank which offers both conventional and Islamic banking, Bank B is a full-fledged Islamic bank. Results indicated that there is a general lack of awareness about the concept of Hawalah used by both banks. Although there is strong awareness of Islamic Shariah's strong prohibition on taking interest, the staff members are uninformed about the underlying concepts of Hawalah. In addition, the authors found that the hawalah-...
