Financing Concluded Deal Between Client And Owner Of Goods
Is it permissible for a bank to finance a concluded deal between a client and a third-party (owner of goods) under a Murabaha?
Such a transaction is impermissible since it would amount to interest-based financing. For a Murabaha to be valid, it is necessary that the bank acquires and takes possession of goods and subsequently resells them to a client at cost plus profit.
