Islamic insurance, also known as takaful, is based on principles of mutual assistance and cooperation rather than commercial insurance principles involving interest and gambling. It operates through members contributing funds into a shared pool to compensate anyone who suffers specified losses. Key differences from conventional insurance are that takaful contracts cannot be based on buying and selling and must avoid uncertainty. Common takaful products include family, medical, fire, motor and accident plans. Islamic scholars have developed takaful as an alternative to conventional insurance that is compliant with Sharia law.

Diminishing Musharakah is commonly used in Islamic banking for house financing through purchase, construction, renovation, or balance transfers, where the bank and client enter a partnership agreement and the client gradually purchases the bank's share of ownership.

Takaful insurance is an Islamic alternative to conventional insurance that complies with Sharia law. It operates similar to mutual or cooperative insurance, with policyholders underwriting risk. The market has grown significantly in recent decades in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and parts of Africa. Takaful models differ in how funds are shared between policyholders and the operator. Regulation of the industry is still developing globally and faces challenges such as a lack of harmonization and shortage of skilled workers.
