It is permissible to take the loan and benefit from it as long as the condition is not actually activated. However, if the condition is activated and the required insurance is a permissible cooperative-takaful insurance, then there is no objection to it, because it is among the lawful guarantees. It is prohibited if it is a forbidden commercial insurance.
