Description
Summary:There have been many Islamic Home products introduced in Malaysia since the establishment of its first Islamic bank – Bank Islam (M) Berhad in early 1980s. However, hitherto, it is still doubtful that these products have fully complied with Islamic law. This is evident in the issue of justice and gharar in face of the problems of abandoned housing projects. This paper discusses Ijarah Mausufah Fi Zimmah (IMFZ) as one of the Islamic Home Finance products that are currently applicable in Malaysia. The discussion entails the issues of abandoned housing projects and examines as to whether the terms in IMFZ can fully deal with the issues. This paper used shariah (Islamic Law), legal doctrinal and qualitative research methodologies. This paper shows that the current applicable terms in IMFZ are inadequate and warranted them to be replaced with terms that provide better equitable protection to aggrieved purchaser in abandoned housing projects, comply with the shariah and dispense justice to the contracting parties. The outcome of this paper will improve the theory and practice of Islamic banking industry in dealing with this issue in Malaysia.
