Sweden's first car financing built on Shariah principles. Three scholars. Public fatwa. Zero interest. Launching Q3 2026.
Pick a car up to 350,000 SEK. Put 10% down. At launch: 14 days from application to keys. One fixed monthly payment. You own the car from day one.
Pay cash - and wait years. Or take an interest-bearing loan - and compromise your faith. Neither should be your only option.
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.
Every car loan in Sweden includes interest. No matter what they call it. No Swedish bank offers a Shariah-certified product.
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. Shariah-certified by three scholars.
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.

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).
With pre-approval in hand, walk into any authorised Swedish car dealer - up to your approved maximum.
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.
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.
Your estimated monthly payment
5,672 SEK/mo
Total: 272,256 SEK over 48 months. Fixed price, no interest.
This is an illustrative estimate of how our Murabaha model may look at launch in Q3 2026. The final price is set at actual contract signing and may differ. This is not a binding offer. Does not include insurance (insurance included year 1 for Founding Members).
The first 100 families don't get more. They get it first - and they get it reviewed together with us.
10% instead of 15%, for life.
We pay your comprehensive Swedish car insurance the first year. Conventional Swedish insurance is used under the principle of necessity (darura) until a Takaful alternative becomes available on the Swedish market. This is approved by our Shariah board and documented in the fatwa.

None of this is a trick. We're removing the risk. You're helping us build the right product.

Halal Car-Buying Guide
14 pages • 6 chapters • Checklists
What is riba? Which halal alternatives exist? How do you negotiate with car dealers? What if you already have an interest-bearing loan? This guide answers it all - whether you choose us or not.
Enter your email in the form below and we'll send the guide right away.
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
~4,800 SEK/mo
of which ~490 SEK is pure interest (riba)
~29,000 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, 6.9% interest, 48 months.
With Bilen Utan Riba
~4,950 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
The difference? About 170 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
We've made it simple. From the first call to a halal car - we handle everything.
Sign up to the waitlist and let us know you have an existing car loan. We'll reach out as soon as we open for pilot bookings (Q3 2026).
We review your remaining balance, interest, terms and calculate your "riba cost". Completely free.
We build a tailored offer with the exact monthly payment, total cost and term - compared side by side with your current loan.
You pay off the existing loan (we help with the paperwork). We buy the car. The Murabaha contract is signed - Shariah-reviewed.
Your car is riba-free. Your contract is openly reviewed by three scholars. Every payment builds your ownership.
What riba is costing you in real money. What the scholars say. How Murabaha works. A 5-step plan. Calculator. Checklist. Everything you need to switch.
Many call themselves halal. We publish everything - every fatwa, every scholar's name, the full contract - before you pay a single krona.
Our Shariah board will consist of three independent scholars - one Hanafi, one Shafi'i and one Maliki. We are engaging them now ahead of the Q3 2026 pilot launch. Names, CVs and AAOIFI certification 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.
The full fatwa document is published on the website. The full contract template too. You can show everything to your imam before you decide. Nothing is hidden.
If within 30 days 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.
We follow the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI) - the same framework as Gatehouse Bank, Al Rayan Bank and StrideUp in the UK. That means our Murabaha model is reviewed against the strictest international requirements.
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.
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.
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 who hired three of the world's best Shariah scholars to build the right product, the right way.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
Sign up today - you'll be first to know when we open. Founding Member spots are allocated in sign-up order.
