Abstract

In this chapter we are going to describe the major Islamic financial instruments and compare them with the conventional ones. Islamic financial instruments can be divided into equity-based and debt-based instruments. The first group includes mushārakah, a contract governing the pooling of labor and capital, and mudārabah, an agency contract. The second group consists of murābahah, a generic sale contract, salam, which allows the seller not to be in possession of the good at the time of sale; however, the good must be fungible and readily available on the market, istisnā’, which is similar to salam, but dispenses with the fungibility requirement, and ijarah, which refers to renting someone’s goods or services.

Fußnoten
1
This provision made sense historically, when capital markets were not well developed. As a result, the opportunity cost of capital was low and the seller enjoyed sufficient market power. A similar provision is less reasonable today.
 
2
Usufruct is a limited real right that unites the two main characteristics of property rights: usus, the right to use or enjoy a thing possessed, directly and without altering it; and fructus, the right to derive profit from a thing possessed.
