Islamic Finance
Service overview: Islamic finance solicitors
- Islamic finance concerns the raising of capital in accordance with Sharia (Shari’ah), or Islamic law.
- Central to Islamic finance is the importance of risk sharing, raising capital and the avoidance of riba (usury) or ghara (uncertainty).
- Sharia-compliant finance involves raising capital for companies without engaging in practices that would be considered haram.
- Haram finance includes practices that are usurious or exploitative, or involve prohibited products such as alcohol.
- Islamic finance contracts include bai salaam, ijara, istisna’a, mudaraba, murabaha and musharaka.
