Manzil Halal (permissible) mortgages mean that the dedicated Muslims can now have a choice. Manzil Halal mortgages are different than the usual mortgages, so they comply with Islamic laws and principles.
The most usual form of Shariah home purchase finance are Manzil Ijara and Manzil Murabaha. These methods are the suitable for purchasing property in the UK. These are both Manzil Ijara and Manzil Murabaha compliant.
Manzil Ijara is a “lease-to-own” concept and is interest-free. In a Ijara based contract, you find the property you are interested in and agree to the price. The mortgage lender starts a ‘Promise to Purchase’ contract for the amount equal to the purchase price and buys the property. In tandem with this, you sign an agreement with the bank which particulars your right to occupy the house. Monthly payments are made to the mortgage provider and a part of the money is put towards the purchase of the house with the balance considered as rent. When the balance is paid in full, all other payments stop and you own the property.
