FAQQuestions

What is Qard Hassan?
Qard Hassan is a benevolent, interest-free loan repaid at exactly the amount borrowed. It is used for welfare and short-term need, never to earn a return for the lender.
What business area does Qard Hassan Benevolent Loan belong to?
Qard Hassan Benevolent Loan sits in the Islamic Financing business area — asset-backed Islamic financing, where the bank trades in or co-owns real assets instead of lending money at interest. It follows the BIAN Fulfill functional pattern over the Qard Hassan Facility asset, with the Qard Hassan Facility Fulfillment Arrangement as its control record.
How is this isolated from conventional banking?
Completely. The Islamic landscape shares no code, repositories, namespaces or events with the conventional platform. This domain lives in the isb-financing namespace with an isb-* repository and com.bank.islamic package, so the two can never mix by accident.
Is this a certified Shariah-compliant product?
No. It is an educational reference implementation in the BIAN service-domain style. Actual Shariah compliance of any real deployment requires certification by a qualified Shariah Supervisory Board. Standards referenced: AAOIFI, IFSB, IIFM.
