Shariah Legitimacy of Murabahah: • Qura’an: Surah Ale Imran – “It is no crime for you to seek the bounty of your Lord” [verse 198] Surah Al-Baqarah – “Allah has permitted trade” [Verse 275] • Sunnah: The Prophet (PBUH) purchased a she camel from Abu Bakr (RAA) for use as transportation from Medinah...

  21. Islamic Modes/Instruments - Sale Contracts: Salam: Defined A salam transaction is the purchase of a commodity for deferred delivery in exchange for immediate payment. It is a type of sale in which the price, known as the salam capital, is paid at the time of contracting while the delivery of the item to be sold known as subject matter of salam (al Muslam fihi) is deferred. Salam is also known as Salaf (lit: borrowing)

  22. Islamic Modes/Instruments - Sale Contracts: Salam: Shariah Legitimacy • Allh says “O ye who believe when you deal with each other, in transactions involving future obligations in a fixed period time, reduce them to writing” [Al Baqara Verse 282] • Ibn Abbas reported, the Prophet (PBUH) came to Medina on Hijrat and found that people were selling dates for deferred delivery (salam) over a period of one or two years. The Prophet (PBUH) said: “whoever pays for dates on a deferred delivery basis (salam) should do so on the basis of specified scale and weight” [Bukhari and Muslim]

  23. Islamic Modes/Instruments - Sale Contracts: Wisdom of allowing Salam • Farmers, orchard owners, merchants can fulfill their working capital and consumption needs before the commodity is ready to be sold

  24. Islamic Modes/Instruments - Sale Contracts: Salam: • It is an exception to the possession (a rule of sale) • A purchase contract with deferred delivery of goods in exchange of advance price fully paid on spot (opposite to Murabahah financing) • Benefits both the seller and purchaser – • Seller (client) receives the price in advance • Purchaser (Bank) contracts the price which is lower than the market price at the time of delivery

  25. Islamic Modes/Instruments - Sale Contracts: Conditions of Salam: • Salam is a binding contract • Full price at spot, otherwise selling debt for debt (exception – upto 3 days) • Salam capital (price) in principle be in cash, however, it can also be fungible commodities (wheat etc.), or usufruct [Imam Malik] • Debt not recognized as salam capital • Sale in case of commodities satisfying condition of fungibility (Dhawatul Amthal), quantity be specified exactly • Standardized production of companies can also be treated as salam commodity • Product of a particular field or farm cannot be sold under Salam

  26. Islamic Modes/Instruments - Sale Contracts: Conditions of Salam: • Certain date and place of delivery • The commodity should remain in the market throughout the period of contract [Different opinions] • Time period for delivery should be sufficient to allow use of salam capital conveniently and effect prices, preferably be at least 15-30 days [Different opinions] • Subject matter of salam can be exchanged with other goods only after the date of delivery as long as this replacement is not the part of contract. But market value of exchanged goods should not be more than the market value of salam goods

  27. Islamic Modes/Instruments - Sale Contracts: Conditions of Salam: • If the buyer refuses to take delivery of goods (when these meet the specification criteria) he should be compelled to take delivery • If seller fails to deliver due to insolvency he should be granted an extension in time of delivery • Salam contract can be cancelled with the consent of both parties, and only the original price paid is returned • A security/guarantee or personal surety can be obtained as safeguard against risk of default

  28. Payment of Salam Price 1-1-2007 Bank Client Salam Transaction Agent Delivery of Goods 30-6-2007 Third Party

  29. Islamic Modes/Instruments - Sale Contracts: Salam: Procedural Alternatives: • The banks face limitations in receiving commodities and selling them in the market • Banks can overcome the limitation by establishing a subsidiary to undertake this task • Banks can adopt Parallel Salam or Third party sales to avoid this situation • Banks can appoint the client its agent to sell the commodity. The agency agreement should be separate from the salam agreement • If agent has been able to sell the commodity at a price more than the one stipulated in agency agreement, he is entitled to get the difference

  32. Islamic Modes/Instruments - Sale Contracts: Rules of Parallel Salam and Third party promise • Both the contracts viz. salam and parallel salam must be independent of each other, otherwise it becomes two sales in one contract • Parallel salam is allowed only with third parties. Therefore the original seller cannot be entered into the parallel salam • If one party breaches its obligation, the bank has no right to refuse delivery of goods in parallel contract • The third party giving unilateral promise should not pay the price as this is not allowed in Shariah
