Dr.Abdul Sattar Abu Ghuddah
Introduction:
In this article Dr.Abdul Sattar Abu Ghuddah the
scholar has discussed the topic ijarah through which he enlightened
more aspects of ijarah which is known as leasing its worldly known
thing with different names all over the world but it is more frequently
work in Islamic country and ijarah is one of the known term of modes of
Islamic financing .
IJARAH DEFINATION:
It is defined by jurists as: "Possessing of a usufruct for a consideration"
Malaiki school of Figh mostly confines the term lease "Ijara" contract to
the human usufruct and the moveable objects other than vessels and
animals. They call the contract on usufructs of land, houses, vessels and
animals the term "Kiraa", so they said Ijarah and Kiraa have the same
meaning. This is a brief definition for Ijarah which combines almost
intentions of jurists "Fugha" regarding definitions presented by them
which reflect the nature and some features of Ijarah.
Description of Ijarah (Charging ruling & Evidence):
Ijara settlement is permissible in precept(4), the evidence is drawn
from the Quran, the prophet's Sunna, the consensus (Ijmaa) and
reasoning: As for the Quran, Allah almighty says: "and in the event that
they suckle your (offspring), provide them their recompense
Pillars of Ijarah:
According to consensus of Muslim jurists (Jamhour), Ijarah has three
pillars and six sub-pillars:
• The subject of the contract which is comprised of two parts: Rent and
usufruct. Attention shall be drawn to the fact that the usufruct is
considered the subject matter of the contract since it is the object that
is used or utilized in return for rent, therefore it is guaranteed rather
than the asset (Ayn), so the asset (Ayn) is not the subject of the
contract, yet Ijarah contract sometimes encompasses it as the subject
of usufruct, for example: " I rent you the car"(13) . Hanafie scholars
opine that the pillar of Ijarah is restricted to the text only and consider
the contracting parties and the subject matter of the contract as
constituents of the contract. Ala eddin al-Samarghandi explained the
nature of Ijarah
contract and its difference from sale where he said: "Ijarah
asset (Ayn)"
IJARAH text:
text of Ijarah is the way through which the need of each
contracting parties is proven in terms of expression or its
equivalence, by way of an offer issued through the proprietor "The
holder of theasset", and reputation issued through the would be
possessor pursuant to consensus of majority of scholars (Jamhour),
while Hanafie college of Figh opines that "The provide is what is
issued first by using either of the two contracting parties, and
popularity is what's issued later by using the other contracting
party".
