Introduction The word ‘Takaful’ has been derived from the Arabic root word ‘ Kafala’ meaning ‘mutual guarantee’. It is risk-sharing instead of risk-transfer. Takaful is a practical manifestation of the Quranic injunction for mutual co-operation and assistance for the common good/benefit. It encompasses the predominant elements of social good, brotherhood and solidarity – founded on the core Shariah principles. By doing so, one gets benefited – from cradle to grave and even in the Hereafter!

Introduction Micro-insurance defined: “Risk-pooling products that are designed to be appropriate for the low-income market in relation to cost, terms, coverage, and delivery mechanisms”.
