Learn About Takaful - Islamic Insurance
Takaful is a form of insurance that follows Islamic finance principles. The word "takaful" means solidarity, cooperation, and shared responsibility.
How Takaful Insurance Works
In takaful insurance, policyholders pay contributions to a shared pool of funds. The purpose is to support each other in case anyone needs payouts to cover losses.
For example, if someone's house gets damaged, funds from the pool could help pay for repairs. Next time if another person needs payouts, the pool has their back.
This concept of shared financial risk and support reflects core Islamic values of solidarity and looking out for one another.
The pooled funds only get used to help policyholders in times of trouble. The remaining money gets invested in Shariah-approved options like ethical stocks and real estate. Profits go back to the shared pool.
Implementing Takaful Insurance on Web3
As Islamic finance models like takaful thrive, experts are exploring how to offer such services through blockchain technology and decentralized apps.
The transparency, accessibility and automation potential of Web3 could enable more Muslims around the world to use takaful products aligned with their faith. Initiatives like Islamic Coin are pioneering this.
