Tell me your opinion and investigation on this current issue of Islamic Banking. Can we participate in their different products like, car financing, house finanacing, taking loans etc.
Answer
(Fatwa: 360/360=L)
The banks which are operating on shirkah and muzarabah are on Islamic principles. No specific bank can be regarded as right until the entire functioning detail is surveyed. Therefore, one can not be allowed to benefit from its schemes before verification.
