Is Bank AlJazira usurious (Riba-based) or Islamic?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is permissible to work at Bank AlJazira because, in principle, it strives to Islamicize its operations, and it is stipulated that work must be in accordance with the decisions of the Board. If you are compelled to do something that violates these decisions, you must first inform the Sharia Board and seek their guidance.
