What makes this card Islamic

The bank does not name the contract

We could not find Kuwait Finance House stating which Shariah contract this card is built on. That is not the same as saying the card is non-compliant, but it does mean you cannot check the reasoning for yourself. Ask the bank which structure it uses, and for its Shariah board’s approval, before you apply.

Approved by Fatwa and Shariah Supervisory Board, under the supervision of Central Bank of Kuwait (CBK).

What it costs

Every figure below comes from Kuwait Finance House’s own published documents. Where the bank does not publish a number we say so rather than estimate it.
