Shariah Concept

  • Ar-Rahnu

    Ar-Rahnu is Islamic pawn-broking based on the principles of Wadiah Yad Dhamanah and Ar-Rahn. The former refers to placement of goods or deposits with another person, who is not the owner, for safe-keeping while Ar-Rahn is an arrangement whereby a valuable asset is placed as collateral for a debt. It is an easy way for you to attain micro financing, and we give you an opportunity to choose transactions that do not involve riba. Learn more »
