Mudarabah

Deifinition of Mudarabah

“Mudarabah” is a kind of partnership where one partner gives money to another for investing in profitable avenues. The investor (fund supplier) is called “Rabb-ul-Mal” while the person who utilizes this fund (the fund manager) is called “Mudarib” who is exclusively responsible for management of the business.

Legitimacy of Mudarabah

The Muslim jurists have reached Ijma’ among them upon conducting Ijtihad on the permissibility of the Mudarabah contract. It has also been established that the companions of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) such as Umar, Uthman, Ali, Abdullah Ibn Mas`ud, Abdullah Ibn Umar, Ubaydullah Ibn Umar and A`ishah have placed the property of orphans under the Mudarabah contract with no objections from other companions.
