What is RIBA?
‘Riba’ (Arabic: ربا ,الربا، الربٰوة ) basically means “usury” or gaining from exploitative gains from trading or business. RIBA has been condemned in Qur’an (3:130, 4:161, 30:39 and perhaps most commonly in 2:275-2:280) also it has been mentioned in hadith.
While Muslims agree that riba is prohibited, not all agree on what precisely it is. It is often used as an Islamic term for interest charged on loans, and the belief is based on that there is a consensus among Muslims that all loan/bank interest is riba forms the basis of a $2 trillion Islamic banking industry. However, not all scholars have equated riba with all forms of interest, or agree whether its use is a major sin or simply discouraged (makruh), or whether it is in violation of sharia (Islamic law) to be punished by humans rather than by Allah.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
is it Haram to buy a car on finance?
It’s a common worry, but it generally depends on the kind of finance. A standard car loan with interest is definitely not permissible because it’s a debt-based transaction. But Halal car finance is completely different. It isn’t a loan at all; it’s an asset-based partnership where we buy the car and you pay us for it over time. It’s a totally permissible way to get your next vehicle.
What is the Halal way to buy a car?
The Halal way to buy a car is through an Ijarah agreement, which is a lease-to-own plan. You pick any car from any dealership, we purchase it for you and then you pay it off with us in regular instalments that include our profit margin. When the plan ends, the car is 100% yours. Our vehicle and asset finance options show you exactly how this works.
What’s the difference between a normal instalment plan and an Islamic one?
Buying a car on instalment in Islam is Halal, but the structure is what matters. With a Halal plan, the total price is fixed upfront with no surprises or hidden charges. The payments are based on the car’s actual value, not an interest-bearing loan where the amount you owe can grow. It’s a straightforward purchase agreement, just spread out over time.
What are the steps for getting Islamic car finance?
Getting Islamic financing for cars is a simple, four-step process: 1. You find the car you want. 2. You apply with us. 3. We buy the car. 4. You make your payments to us. It’s a transparent process from start to finish, and you can see how easy it is by following our step-by-step application guide.
Is owning a car dealership haram?
That’s a great question. Selling cars is a legitimate business where the profit comes from the sale of the vehicle. The only problem would be offering interest-based loans to customers. A dealership that avoids Riba and focuses on fair trade is operating in a perfectly Halal manner.
How do I find car finance I can trust to be Halal?
You’re in the right place. We provide genuine Halal vehicle finance that is fully Sharia-compliant, which you can verify by checking with our independent Sharia board. It’s not a loan with a different name; it’s a completely different way to buy a car, new or used.
