#murabaha
The one critique I have of normal loans is that the Islamic version of loans (Murabaha) is more straightforward in terms of presentation (in the case below the bank would buy the truck and then sell is to the consumer in installments, based on a selling price of around 140%)
one of the least sympathetic microgenres of post is, "I financed an extremely expensive truck at fairly normal APRs and am paying HOW MUCH in interest?!"

my uncle is broke as shit in his 60s in large part from making this exact sort of decision multiple times

Islamilainen pankkitoiminta käyttää instrumentteja kuten mudarabah (voitonjako, pankki ja yrittäjä jakavat riskin), murabaha (pankki ostaa hyödykkeen ja myy sen asiakkaalle lisähinnalla, ei korkoa) ja sukuk (islamilaiset joukkovelkakirjat).

Teoride İslam İktisadı "Risk Paylaşımı" der. Yani banka seninle ortak olur, kar da eder zarar da. Ama pratikte işlemlerin %90'ı "Murabaha"dır. Yani banka malı peşin alır, sana vadeli satar. Sonuç? Nakit akışı faizli krediyle tıpatıp aynıdır. İktisatçılar buna "Eşdeğerlik" der.

Do you remember how they got around that prohibition back then? It's right on the edge of my consciousness....

Looked it up. Similar to the Islamic Murabaha. The lender buys the asset and sells it to the borrower on a cost+ basis, the "+" being the equivalent of interest. Thank you Google. 🙂

What Is Murabaha? Business Financing Guide
Murabaha is a cost-plus sale structure used in Islamic finance. In a business context, it usually means that a bank or financier purchases an asset requested by a customer and then sells that asset to the customer at a disclosed markup. The customer pays the agreed sale price immediately or over time. Murabaha is one of the most widely used Islamic banking structures because it is practical, understandable, and suitable for many ordinary business purchases such as equipment, vehicles, inventory, raw materials, and trade goods.
