 Mudharabah-Based Takaful
• In this model, a clear distinction is made
between the business of takaful or insurance
and the business of investing funds mobilized
from policyholders and/or the shareholders. The
takaful operator seeks no returns from managing
the takaful business in line with the spirit of
takaful. It seeks returns from the business of
investing the takaful funds under a mudaraba
agreement with the policyholders for managing
their funds. The policyholders assume the role of
fund provider or rabb-al-maal. As a mudarib the
takaful company receives its share of profits
generated on investments.

• Waqf:
Charity, religious endowment testamentary bequest of
real estate.
• Waqf can be made for Property, Money or any other
asset.
• Waqif should be Sain, Adult, Owner, Free.
• It is not necessary for the Waqif to be a muslim.
• The Waqif can put conditions at the time of Waqf.
• ( Hazrat Usman RA)
 Wakala-WAQF Based Takaful
• Some of the Shariah scholars have critically analyzed
the Wakala system and have suggested to incorporate
the concept of Waqf into the Wakala model. Under this
revised model, the operator would initially make a
donation to establish a benevolent fund called the Waqf
Fund. When this Waqf is created, the shareholders will
lose their ownership rights on the waqf. However, this
fund will be administered by the operator. The donations
received from the participants, seeking takaful
protection, will also be deposited into this fund and the
combined amount will be used for investment. Profits
earned will be deposited into the same fund. Participants
will be given benefit from this Waqf fund. The Waqf fund
would be allowed to form contingency reserve fund apart
from usual technical reserves. The Waqf fund rules
would define the basis for compensation and financial
help, and rules for sharing surplus between the members
and operators.
