What makes this card Islamic

Discontinued 30 November 2025; the transition notice states 'Your existing obligations under the Murabaha Contract linked to your ADCB Islamic Etihad Guest Credit Card shall be settled through the utilisation of amounts available under any of your accounts or other products you are availing with ADCB Islamic Banking.'
