Tijarah Financing: Tijarah Financing product aims at fulfilling working capital requirements of the Clients. In this transaction, BankIslami Pakistan Limited (‘BankIslami’) purchases assets/goods, that are available for sale, from the Client against an agreed purchase price on spot basis.

Istisna Financing: Istisna is a contract of sale of specified items to be manufactured/constructed, with an obligation on the part of the manufacturer/seller to deliver them to the buyer upon completion.

Salam Financing: Salam is a sale, whereby, the seller undertakes to supply some specific commodity to the buyer at a future date in exchange for an advanced price fully paid on the spot. As a matter of principle, the sale of a commodity which is not in the possession of the seller is unlawful. Thus, the practice of Salam is legalized as an exception and is allowed under certain terms and conditions.

Salam is allowed for commodities only which are homogeneous and fungible in nature i.e. every unit of the commodity should be identical and substitutable in nature e.g. sugar, rice, wheat etc. Therefore, Salam is an ideal mode for financing for agricultural concerns. Salam financing can also fulfill all working capital requirements of manufacturers/traders dealing in homogeneous commodities.
