Since then I lived in multiple houses and all of them were on rent basis. Mu current accommodation is on rent as well. In the UK, there is so much confusion about the Islamic mortgage (Housing finance) been offered in Britain whether it actually fulfils all requirements of Shariah law or not. I even spoke to my local masjid&#39;s Imam but unable to get a clear answer. I am talking particularly about Housing Purchase Plan (HPP) being offered by Al-Rayan Bank (formerly Islamic Bank of Britain IBB). I&#39;ve also read &#39;An introduction to Islamic Finance&#39; by Mufti Taqi Usmani Sb and compared it with Al-Rayan bank HPP T&amp;Cs and came to the conclusion that Al-Rayan Bank is offering Shariah Compliant Home financing.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">My question is; 1. Please advise if my understanding is correct and that the HPP plan offered by Al-Rayan Bank to buy a house is shariah compliant? If not, please advise which particular clause or condition is making this non-shariah compliant.
