Answer :
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh Your question is unclear and ambiguous. In all probability you are referring to the concept of Diminishing Musharakah. While the bank may offer the concept, what guarantee do you have that the terms and conditions of the contract are not Shariah Compliant? Who will supervise the bank’s operations to ensure the transaction is Shariah Compliant? How do we know if the funds used by the bank are not tainted? What is referred to as brokerage charge? Kindly submit the terms and conditions of the contract in order for us to issue a ruling. And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best Mufti Ismail Desai, Darul Iftaa Checked and Approved, Mufti Ebrahim Desai.
