So far it has been only one year since I got the mortgage. I am presently in Jamaat for 40 days and have realized it is haram. I have to come to know about Islamic financing.

The first type is based on ijarah (leasing), where the buyer pays the rent while he lives in the house and makes payment in installments towards the full payment of the house until it has been purchased. The second type is called Murabaha. This is where the bank buys the house and then sells it to you for a profit, which you pay back in installments.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Mufti Taqi Usmani and some other contemporary scholars have permitted these types of Islamic home purchase plans.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">The main bank currently offering Islamic mortgages in the UK is Al-Rayan Bank.
