As Salaamu Alaikum Respected Mufti,
I need to buy a van to travel to work daily as the road conditions are not suitable for the vehicle I’m currently using. I don’t have sufficient funds to purchase a van with cash immediately. I am thinking of making use of the banks Islamic Vehicle finance. Please recommend which types would be permissible to make use of as I do understand that the banks revise and amend these products from time to time.
In the Name of Allaah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salaamu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullaahi wa-barakaatuh.
Brother in Islaam,
You may obtain the contract of the financing scheme you are interested in and forward it to us at admin@daruliftaa.net for our observation and advice.
And Allaah Ta’aala Knows Best.
