• Murabaha is a particular kind of sale where

the seller expressly mentions the cost of the


sold commodity he has incurred, and sells it
to another person by adding some profit or
mark-up thereon.
 A simple sale in Arabic is called Musawamah - a sale without
disclosing or referring to the cost of goods sold

 However when the cost price is disclosed to the client, it is


called Murabaha.

 The distinguishing feature of Murabaha from ordinary sale is


- The seller discloses the cost to the buyer
- And a known profit is added

 A simple Murabaha is one where there is cash payment and


Murabaha Muajjal is one on deferred payment basis.
 In case of riba, lender of the money gets a specific interest on
the amount lended, after a specific time period, whereas the
principle retains in the ownership of the lender.

 While in murabaha, there is no loan, instead one person sells a


commodity to other and the possession as well as the risk
transfers to the buyer, and the seller get his reward in the shape
of profit.

 The most essential element of the transaction is that the
commodity must remain in the risk of the institution
during the period between the third and the fourth stage..

 It is also a necessary condition for the validity of Murabahah


that they purchased from a third party. The purchase of the
commodity from the client himself on a buy agreement is not
allowed in the Shariah.

 Also there must not be any prior relation b/w the


supplier and the customer
 The abovementioned procedure of the Murabahah financing is
a complex transaction which the parties involved, have
different capacities different stages .

 All these capacities must be kept in mind and must come into
operation with consequential effects each at its relevant stage
and these different capacities should never be mixed up
confused with each other.
Default Case:
 In the event of default by the buyer (client) in respect of the
payment of the purchase price on the due date, the PRICE
cannot be increased. However, if he has undertaken in the
agreement to pay an amount for a charitable purpose, he shall be
liable to pay. & that must not be credited to the income of the
institution.
 Rebates in Early Payment:

If the customer makes the payment before the due date


and there is no commitment that he would gain any
discount in the price of Murabahah. Then it is permissible
for bank to give any rebate to the client.

 Documentation charges:
The documentation charges may be charged to the both parties
 Rollover in Murabahah:
Rollover in Murabahah is not possible since each Murabahah
transaction is for a particular asset. A new Murabahah can only
be executed for the purchase of a new asset.

 Purchase Evidence:
The customer is required to submit purchase evidence and
declaration. The purchase evidence must confirm that customer
as an agent has purchase the goods after agency agreement
