What makes this card Islamic

Bank Nizwa builds this card on a Qard Hasan contract. The bank lends you the money and you pay back exactly what you borrowed, not a penny more.

Bank Nizwa's Key Fact Statement names the Shariah basis of ALL its credit cards as Qard Hassan (an interest-free loan). No profit rate; income is a fixed monthly membership fee waived when the full outstanding balance is settled on the due date, plus a fixed annual fee.

Approved by Shari'a Supervisory Board, under the supervision of Central Bank of Oman (CBO).
