One of the key tenets of Islamic banking is that the relationship between the bank and the customer is one based on partnership and fairness where the risks are shared. Therefore, instead of a situation where the purchaser buys the property and borrows the money from the bank and pays interest as in a conventional mortgage, in an Islamic mortgage the bank, owns the property on behalf of the customer and the customer buys it back over time from the bank by paying rent to the bank. This is the case for an Ijara Mortgage which is being offered by Dukhan Bank.
When agreeing to buy the property the purchaser is required to sign a document which assigns the rights to own the property to the bank. The customer signs an Ijara Agreement with the bank which outlines the terms under which the customer rents the property from the bank. At the end of the rental term (up to 15 years) the bank sells the property to the customer for a nominal amount. The assignment document is notarized at the Ministry of Justice in Qatar to ensure all parties are suitably protected.
