UK: Another Sharia compliant insurance company

This is the third insurance company announcing it's the first sharia compliant insurance company. Maybe this is the first dedicated Sharia compliant company?

------

Britain's first Shari`ah-compliant insurer was launched on Monday, July 28, offering policies in line with the Muslim faith and becoming the latest financial body complying with the rules of Islamic finance in the European country.


"Salaam Halal insurance is the UK's first dedicated Islamic insurance provider set up to provide Islamic insurance based on the Shari`ah principle of Takaful," the new firm says on its website.


"Now you can have great value insurance, without compromising the principles of your faith."


Salaam Halal insurance uses Takaful principles, which are based on mutual cooperation in the sharing of risk and addresses key features associated with conventional insurance that is incompatible with Shari`ah.
