INTRODUCTION
The Murabaha is also similar to a form of sale
called Tawliyyah (to sell as per the
purchasing price without making profit.
Murabaha or cost plus markup sale is the first
of asset based financing contracts employed
by Islamic banks. It is the most widely used
financing tool as it somehow resembles a
loan contract.

3. When a business wants to purchase an asset, they have five
choices:
Pay cash – difficult if it is a big ticket item, say vehicle,
machinery or buildings
Get it on credit from the vendor, possibly through
interest free credit card; you can forget about getting
interest free credit from a car dealer or housing
developer.
Get a loan to buy the asset either from a conventional
financial institution.
Get an Islamic financing from an IFI.
Defer or forget about the future purchase.

4. For Islamic standards of a legal sale, Murabaha is
completed in two stages, In the First Stage, the
bank purchases a product that the client is selling
and the Second Stage, the client agrees to a
payment schedule for repurchasing the good,
Because Murabaha involves two transactions, two
sale contracts are used.
Murabaha “is a contract of sale where the seller
discloses to the buyer the actual cost of the item
to be sold in addition to the profit margin (mark
up) added, to be mutually agreed winning with the
buyer”. Abdulahi Abukar “ ABAJEY”

5. The Murabaha contract is one of the safest
branches of Islamic law, where the price of
the sale is determined based on the cost of
the commodity plus an agreed profit between
the seller and the buyer.
The Murabaha is one of the most commonly
used modes of financing by Islamic Banks and
financial institutions.
The Murabaha is a mode of financing as old
as Musharakah, Today in Islamic banks world-
over 67% of all investment transactions are
through Murabaha.Abdulahi Abukar “ ABAJEY”

16. Besides the principles mentioned in the definition box of
Murabaha, we should note the following:
In a Murabaha to the purchase ordered, the promise
to buy of the customer (the purchase ordered) may
be binding or non binding. This result from different
shari’a opinions. One group of scholars view that the
promise is non-binding because:
a) The bank cannot sell what it does not have (at the
time of making the promise)
b) The goods may be faulty , deficient or unnecessary
when delivered.
