Islamic Car and Asset Finance
What Is Islamic Car And Asset Finance
In Australia, Islamic car finance is not readily available. Since it was first introduced to the Australian market, multiple Islamic funders have offered this product but have removed it from the market due to challenges associated with obtaining funding and ensuring that contracts are sharia compliant. At Sharia Finance, we have partnered with funders who can offer sharia compliant finance for both personal and business use, including Islamic Car and Asset Finance.

Are There Different Types Of Islamic Car And Asset Finance?
There are two main methods for financing vehicles and assets utilizing Australian Islamic finance. These include:
Ijarah Muntahia Bittamleek (Lease To Buy)
This is a form of lease agreement where a funder will finance a property with an agreed rental instalment. These rental instalments can be either fixed or variable and are over an agreed period of time. At the end of the lease period, the ownership of the property will be transferred from the funder to the client or the funders claim to the property will be removed.
Murabaha (cost plus)
This form of Islamic finance is where the funder will purchase an asset on behalf of a client, then sell it to the client at the purchase price plus an agreed profit margin (mark-up). The profit that the funder puts on top of the asset’s purchase price is for the services and costs incurred by the funder to secure and purchase the asset. The client will make regular payments to the funder until the purchase price plus profit margin has been repaid. As with Ijarah agreements, the buyer does not become the owner until after the finance has been paid in full.
