In its long journey of trust and welfare, Islami Bank Bangladesh PLC has always prioritized the needs of the people. As part of its commitment, unique innovations—ranging from Waqf , Bibaho and Muhor Savings accounts—are now fulfilling the dreams of millions for a secure and sanctified future, a press release said.
Mudaraba Cash Waqf Deposit Account: The Mudaraba Cash Waqf Deposit Account offers a unique opportunity for Sadaqah Jariyah (continuous charity). Under this scheme, the donated principal amount remains perpetually preserved, while the Shari’ah-compliant profits generated are distributed to the welfare of humanity. Account holders have the flexibility to direct the utilization of profits toward the bank’s predefined welfare sectors or any Shari’ah-approved cause of their choice under the principles of Mudaraba. To facilitate the distribution of these earnings, one or more savings or current accounts are required at the same branch. While profits are typically disbursed annually, customers also have the option to receive estimated monthly profit for immediate charitable activities. Any citizen aged 18 or above, or any institution, can initiate this noble journey with a minimum deposit of BDT 1,000, either as a lump sum or in installments. Additionally, parents or legal guardians may open and manage these accounts on behalf of minors, ensuring a foundation of social responsibility from an early age.
Mudaraba Bibaho and Muhor Savings Accounts: Marriage is a sacred covenant, and to ensure its graceful commencement and the fulfillment of marital obligations, Islami Bank offers the Mudaraba Bibaho Savings Account and the Mudaraba Muhor Savings Account.
The Bibaho Savings Account is a monthly installment-based scheme designed for adults or guardians to prudently manage wedding expenses. With flexible monthly installments ranging from BDT 500 to BDT 50,000 (in multiples of 500), and tenures of 3 to 5 years, this account allows individuals to align their savings with their financial goals. Profits are credited bi-annually based on Shari’ah principles, with a final adjustment at the end of the year.
Mudaraba Muhor Savings Account, specifically designed for professionals, businessmen, or expatriate individuals who wish to honor the religious and legal obligation of Mohor through planned savings. With installments ranging from BDT 500 to BDT 5,000 and tenures of 5 or 10 years, this account can be opened in the name of the wife or by unmarried individuals in their own names. For married individuals, the installment is determined based on the outstanding Muhor amount mentioned in the Kabinnama (Marriage Deed), ensuring a dignified way to fulfill this essential pillar of marriage.
In an era of digital convenience, Islami Bank has integrated its services through CellFin, i-Banking, and its vast network of branches, sub-branches and agent outlet. With a simple ‘Special Instruction’, customers can now automate their monthly installment payments across all accounts. These specialized accounts can be opened effortlessly at any branch, sub-branch, or agent outlet, and even from home via the CellFin app, requiring only a National ID and a photograph.
By blending technological excellence with the highest standards of financial integrity, Islami Bank Bangladesh PLC has evolved beyond a mere financial institution. It is now a trusted sanctuary for fulfilling religious and social obligations. This unique fusion of worldly comfort and spiritual peace remains the cornerstone of the unwavering trust millions in Islami Bank, year after year.
