I want to know if it is permissible to finance a house or a vehicle from the bank. I heard it is permissible according to some ulema.. please give a detailed explanation..

Answer:

Finance obtained through conventional banks is based on gambling and interest, hence, not permissible. However, there are banks in South Africa that operate on Shari?ah principles. We suggest you contact Al-Barakah Bank and request them to guide you.
