Konsep takaful

CONCEPTS OF TAKAFUL IN NUTSHELL
The basic fundamentals underlying the Takaful concept are very similar to co-operative and mutual principles, subjected to the extent that the model is one that is accepted under Islamic Law.

Takaful:
Derived from an Arabic word which means joint guarantee, whereby a group of participants agree to jointly guarantee among themselves against a defined loss.

Tabarru’:
Tabarru’ means donation, gift or contribution. Participant in a takaful scheme agrees to relinquish, as a donation, a certain portion of the contribution into a takaful fund to assist other participants faced with difficulties
It embraces the elements of shared responsibility, joint indemnity and mutual protection; and
It is the core of the takaful system that makes the uncertainty element allowable under the takaful contract.

Mudharabah/Wakalah:
The takaful operator (Prudential BSN Takaful Bhd) is the administrator of the fund and manages the fund in trust on behalf of the participants, and the contract between the participants and the operator is governed under the contract of mudharabah (profit-sharing) or wakalah (agency);
Mudharabah gives the right to the contracting parties to share the profit, while liability for losses is borne by the participants; and
The fee can be a fixed amount or based on an agreed ratio of investment profit or surplus of the takaful funds
