The problem

If you're a Muslim in Sweden, you've had two choices.

Pay cash - and wait years. Or take an interest-bearing loan - and compromise your faith. Neither should be your only option.

💰

Cash?

Saving 200,000-350,000 SEK takes most families 3-5 years. Meanwhile: cramped rides, borrowed cars, or a risky used car bought in desperation.

🏦

Bank loan?

Every car loan in Sweden includes interest. No matter what they call it. No Swedish bank offers a Shariah-reviewed product.

✅

The third choice.

We buy the car from the dealer. We sell it on to you directly - at a fixed, transparent price with a pre-agreed markup. You own the car from day one. You pay the rest in fixed monthly amounts. No interest. No riba. Being built for Shariah certification ahead of the Q3-Q4 2026 pilot.

How it works

How the process will work at launch Q3-Q4 2026 - from application to keys in 14 days.

Murabaha (cost-plus sale). The same contract structure used by StrideUp in the UK and Guidance Residential in the US, adapted for Swedish consumer credit law.

Our model is Murabaha - we buy the car and resell it to you at a fixed price. It is not Ijara (leasing). Want to understand the difference? Read the guide.

01

Join the waitlist

Sign up for free. We contact you and start a pre-approval. You get an approved maximum amount to shop with (up to 350,000 SEK during the pilot).

02

Find your car at a dealer

With pre-approval in hand, walk into any authorised Swedish car dealer - up to your approved maximum.

03

We buy the car and sell it on to you

You tell the dealer Ribafri AB is the buyer. We pay the dealer and take ownership. The same day we sell the car to you under Murabaha - fixed price, pre-agreed markup. You own the car from that moment.

04

You drive home and pay in fixed monthly amounts

You drive home from the dealer. Same amount every month for 36, 48 or 60 months. No surprises, no late interest. The full contract is Shariah-reviewed. You are listed as the owner on the registration certificate from day one. We only retain a security interest in the car until the final payment, just like a regular car loan.

This is an illustrative estimate of how our Murabaha model may look at launch in Q3-Q4 2026. The final price is set at actual contract signing and may differ. This is not a binding offer. Does not include insurance.

Isn't the markup just interest?

Isn't a markup the same as interest? No.

Interest is a price for time on money, and it can grow if you pay late. Our markup is our profit on a real sale of a car. It's set on day 1, written into the contract, and never changes - not even if you pay late. That's the difference between a loan and a purchase.

Already have an interest-bearing car loan?

You don't need to feel ashamed. But you can switch.

Many of us took car loans for lack of alternatives. The scholars acknowledge that. But now that a halal alternative exists - the necessity ends. Here's what you need to know.

Every month with riba

What it's costing you

~4,780 SEK/mo

of which ~610 SEK is pure interest (riba)

~29,400 SEK

in total interest over the life of the loan

Every Jumah

you carry the knowledge that your loan contains what Allah has forbidden

Based on a 250,000 SEK car, 20% down payment, 6.9% interest, 48 months.

With Bilen Utan Riba

What you get instead

5,000 SEK/mo

fixed amount - none of it is interest

0 SEK in riba

every payment builds your ownership of the car

Every Jumah

you pray Friday prayer with peace - your car is halal

Same car, 20% deposit, 48 months. The difference? About 220 SEK/month. The price of living without riba.

"The principle of necessity (darurah) ends the moment a halal alternative becomes available."

- Consensus position across the four Sunni schools of jurisprudence

Shariah status

Not just "halal-labeled". Being built for Shariah certification.

Many call themselves halal. We will publish everything - the full fatwa, scholar names and signatures, the full contract - before the first pilot contract is signed.

Shariah board across three schools of jurisprudence (being formed)

Our Shariah board is being formed. The goal is three independent scholars - one Hanafi, one Shafi'i and one Maliki. We are in active dialogue with recognised scholars ahead of the Q3-Q4 2026 pilot launch. Names, CVs and AAOIFI affiliation will be published together with the fatwa before the first contract is signed. You can therefore review the people against the actual document they have approved - not against marketing material.

Public fatwa & contract (at launch)

The full fatwa document will be published on the website once the board is in place and the contract is reviewed. The full contract template too. You will then be able to show everything to your imam before you decide. We do not publish anything before it is finalised.

30-day Shariah guarantee (applies once pilot contracts open)

Once pilot contracts open, the following will apply: if within 30 days of signing your imam or any AAOIFI-affiliated scholar gives you a written opinion that our structure isn't halal - we tear up the contract. Full refund. No conditions.

AAOIFI global standards

We are building to the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI) - the same framework as Gatehouse Bank, Al Rayan Bank and StrideUp in the UK. Our Murabaha model will be reviewed against the strictest international requirements (Shariah Standard No. 8, Murabahah).

We're honest about the price

"But why is it slightly more expensive?"

We won't lie: at launch we expect your total cost to be slightly higher than a conventional car loan - an estimate is 5-10% more. The difference is the price of living without riba. The final price is set at launch.

Conventional car loan

  • Interest (riba) that can change
  • Hidden fees (setup, billing, late interest)
  • No Shariah review
  • Debt relationship with a bank
  • Variable total cost

Bilen Utan Riba

  • Fixed price - never changes, no matter the market
  • Zero hidden fees - everything visible from day 1
  • Shariah board across three schools of jurisprudence being formed
  • No interest, no debt relationship - a sale over time
  • You own the car from day one

You're not choosing between 5.9% interest and 7%. You're choosing between riba and no riba. Between compromising and being able to look your children in the eye and say: this car is halal.

Who we are

Built by someone in your community.

My name is Rafi. I live in Stockholm. I've stood in front of the same choice you have - pay cash or compromise with riba. There was no third option. So I decided to build it.

This isn't a bank. This isn't a fintech with an Islamic label. This is a Swedish entrepreneur building the product from the ground up and engaging recognised Shariah scholars for review ahead of the pilot launch.

My full name and my reputation stand behind every contract. I can't afford to get this wrong - which is why you can trust that I won't.

Three guarantees. Written commitments that will be in the contract.

Three promises you'll be able to show your lawyer or your imam at signing.

All three guarantees will be written into the Murabaha contract you read before you sign.

30-day Shariah guarantee

If your imam, or any independent AAOIFI-affiliated scholar, gives a written opinion within 30 days of signing that the contract is not halal, we tear it up. Full refund of the deposit. No questions.

Fixed-price guarantee

Your monthly payment is the same in the first month as in the last. It never changes - regardless of interest rates, currencies or inflation. Written into the contract.

Founding Member price guarantee

If we raise prices after the pilot, you keep your Founding Member terms for the entire contract, plus the right to the same terms on your next car purchase with us within five years.
