Hello:
Your input in this survey into the permissibility or otherwise of Shari'ah compliant mortgages, as offered by western banks, would be very much appreciated. This will form part of a MBA project at the University of Westminster, London. It should take under 3 minutes to complete the 15 questions.
It is very important for us to learn your opinions, which will be kept absolutely confidential: Data from this research will be reported only in the aggregate. Your information will be coded and is anyway anonymous.
If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact Robert Whitehouse on: +44 7940 390 990, or by email at the email address: [email protected]
Please forward the link for this survey to as many of your friends and acquaintances as you would like. The more people who take part the better will be the data generated. If you would like a copy of the final results of the survey, I would be more than happy to send this to you. Just e-mail me.
Thank you very much for your time and support. Please start with the survey now by clicking on the Continue button below.
Please indicate your final level of education: Country of Permanent Residence: On a scale of 1 to 5, please indicate how religious you consider yourself to be with 1 being less and 5 being very. In your opinion, does the Arabic term riba best translate into English as: Are you aware that western banks such as HSBC offer Shari'ah compliant mortgages? Would you consider taking one of these mortgages, even though it might work out more expensive than a non-Shari'ah compliant mortgage? Do you consider that the Shari'ah compliant mortgages offered by western banks are truly permissible in Shari'ah law? In your opinion, do these mortgages contain gharrar, or risk/uncertainty? Does the fact that western banks borrow, at interest, on the money markets, the funds provided for these Shari’ah mortgages mean they can not be Shari’ah compliant? If an authoritative fatwa pronounced these mortgages impermissible would you avoid them? |
