We would like to make it more convenient for Muslims to realise their dream of visiting the House of Allah, and fulfilling the fifth pillar of Islam.

End-to-end Shariah-based Takaful products and services will be provided at competitive rates by our reputable Takaful partners. Developing the Shariah-based personal financing facility is consistent with the Bank's aim to reach out to consumers and the general public.
