Dr. Irfan Shahzad
Scholar May 16, 2022 at 11:31 pmInsurance is lawful. It has nothing unethical involved in it. It is not interest or gambling. It is mutual fund which is utilised in commercial business to generate profit to distribute among the customers. The idea is fine.
The host bank or the company use the provided funds on its own discretion, which has no responsibility on the customer.
for details you can read the following article

Mortgage has noting unethical in it. The principle of trade and business is that it should be fair and should not involve trade of Islamically Haram things like liquor or pig.
