Unlimited, up to 5% cashback

Mashreq Al Islami credit card is a Shari’ah compliant credit card from Mashreq Al Islami based on the Islamic law which means that no interest is charged on the outstanding amount. It is governed by the Shari’ah concept of “TAWARRUQ”; Tawarruq is a financial transaction in which a customer purchases a commodity from a seller/bank on a deferred payment basis, and then sells the same commodity to a third party on a spot payment basis.

It means that the Credit Card is designed and developed under the Islamic laws, which is approved by the Internal Shari’ah Supervision Committee of the Bank. Mashreq Al Islami Credit Cards work like conventional credit cards; however, Mashreq Al Islami credit cards are Shari'ah compliant cards (no interest, no hidden cost). If the customer makes full payment of the card outstanding on or before the due date, then the Bank may waive the profit for that month at its sole discretion, however if the customer chooses to pay the minimum outstanding, the Tawarruq Profit rate will be applied on the remaining balance.

Yes, since the Mashreq Al Islami Cashback Credit Card is based on Shari’ah principles, it cannot be used for transactions prohibited by “Islam” such as gambling, alcohol and transactions at clubs, Pubs and Casinos etc. Such transactions will not be considered and will be declined immediately.

Tawarruq refers to the process of purchasing a commodity for a deferred price determined usually through Murabahah (Cost Plus Profit) and selling it to a third party for a spot price. The requirements of the contract for purchasing the commodity on deferred payment bases should be fulfilled. The commodity shall be real and well identified that the seller must own before selling it to the third party.

Tawarruq (commodity Murabaha) - Customer buys an easily saleable asset at a marked-up price (Tawarruq profit rate), to be paid at a later date, and quickly sells the asset to raise cash. Mashreq will do a commodity trade with the customer (cardholder) equal to the approved limit. The profit will be calculated at an agreed rate considering the full limit remained utilized for the full tenure. Once the profit is agreed in the total sales value will never change even if customer does not pay on time. However, Profit collected will be commensurate to the limit utilized.

Your monthly income should be a minimum of AED 5,000.
