SAB noon VISA Credit Card

What makes this card Islamic

Saudi Awwal Bank builds this card on a Tawarruq contract. The bank sells you a commodity on credit at a marked-up price, you sell that commodity to somebody else for cash, and the cash becomes your spending limit.

SAB's own Credit Card Application with Terms & Conditions names TAWARRUQ explicitly and repeatedly: if the cardholder settles only the minimum amount due, the Bank sells commodities it owns on a FUDOLY basis to the cardholder for the outstanding balance in one instalment for one month starting from the due date, and settles the card dues from the proceeds of selling those commodities on the customer's behalf. If the cardholder pays the full outstanding balance on or before the due date, no Tawarruq takes place. The Tawarruq transaction appears on the next statement and is deemed accepted if not objected to within 20 days. The document also gives a worked Tawarruq profit example.

Approved by SAB Shariah Committee, under the supervision of Saudi Central Bank (SAMA).
