Islamic Car Finance in UAE

1 – Buying a car through the bank. This is not permissible unless two conditions are met:

(i) That the car should be owned by the bank. So the bank should buy the car for itself from the showroom, before selling it to you.

(ii) That the bank should take possession of the car by moving it physically from the showroom before selling it to you.

If both or either of these two conditions are not met, then the transaction is haraam.
