Visual scope of financing · islamic

Ijara — Islamic leasing

Bank buys the equipment and leases it to the buyer. Buyer pays fixed rental over 3–7 years. At end of lease, ownership transfers via a separate sale contract. Structurally similar to a finance lease; Sharia-compliant because the bank owns the asset during the lease period.

Murabaha — cost-plus sale

Bank buys the asset from the supplier and immediately sells it to the buyer at cost plus an agreed profit margin, with payment deferred. Common for shorter tenor (1–5 years) and inventory financing. Sharia-compliant because the bank takes ownership risk between purchase and resale.

Musharaka — partnership

Bank and buyer are partners in the venture; profits shared per pre-agreed ratio, losses per capital contribution. Rare for standard equipment procurement, common for greenfield ventures with meaningful equity gap. Used by Islamic Development Bank in agriculture.

Islamic Development Bank (IsDB)

IsDB Group finances agriculture and food security across its 57 member states. Instruments include istisna'a (construction financing), ijara, murabaha and equity. Ticket size $5M+, tenor 8–15 years. Full IFI ESG requirements plus Sharia board approval.

When Islamic finance beats conventional

Where Islamic finance is available at pricing competitive with conventional debt (Gulf, Malaysia, Turkey) it is often preferred for market and regulatory reasons — many sovereign wealth funds and family offices only allocate Sharia-compliant. In non-Islamic-preference markets, conventional structures are usually simpler.
