Kafalah

by economypedia
written by economypedia

Kafalah is a guarantee or suretyship agreement that serves as assurance regarding obligations or performance. In other words, kafalah is useful to stop any unfavorable alteration that can result in ambiguous or unforeseen outcomes with regard to the purpose or foundation of a transaction.

 In order to safeguard the import of products, guarantees are frequently employed. In this situation, a bank will offer a guarantee once the exporter releases the third party from responsibility for the items. 

Both the exporter and the importer may be sure that they will receive their agreed-upon payments in the end—the price for the exporter and the goods for the importer, respectively.

Kafalah is also spelled “kifalah“.

Hanafi scholars
anything that the end result is hidden or the risk is equally uncommon, whether it exists or not.
Al-Sarakshi

it refers to any transaction of probable items whose existence or characteristics are not certain, due to lack of information, ignorance of essential elements in the transaction to either party.

Due to the uncertainty and risk involved, it makes a transaction similar to gambling. which is the main reason behind the prohibition of gharar.

The rationale of prohibition of gharar is to ensure full consent and satisfaction of the parties in a contract. Without full consent, a contract may not be valid.
Full consent can only be achieved through certainty, full knowledge, full disclosure and transparency.

There are two types of Gharar:

  1. Gharar Yasir (light or minor uncertainty)
  2. Gharar Fahish (excessive or major uncertainty).

Both forms of gharar are not haram. Gharar Fahish is the haram kind of Gharar. Gharar Yasir is under the halal class of Gharar.
