What Is Salaam Finance?  

 

Salaam Finance is a home finance solution that enables you to purchase residential property in a way that complies with Islamic principles, including avoiding interest (riba).

Instead of a conventional loan structure, Salaam Finance uses Islamic financing structures — such as Ijarah — where you work toward owning your home with clear terms and shared understanding between you and the finance provider.

You decide what your home looks like, where you live, and how you settle in your community — with clarity, comfort, and confidence.

How It Works

In traditional home loans, interest is charged on borrowed money. Islamic home finance works differently: it avoids riba and uses ethical structures instead. At its core:

Progress Toward Full Ownership

Over time, your repayments increase your share of the property and you work toward full ownership.

What It Is Not  

Salaam Finance is not:

  an investment product     a way to create financial returns

  a strategy to grow your wealth


Its purpose is practical and specific: to help you buy the home you want in a way that aligns with your beliefs and values. For investing and wealth-building, explore other Salaam products.

What is home finance?

Home finance helps individuals purchase a property with financial support from a third party, with regular repayments over time.  

Why Islamic home finance?

Islamic home finance matters because it avoids charging or paying interest, aligning the structure with Shariah values and ethical transparency.  

Are traditional Australian mortgages halal?

No — conventional mortgages involve interest, which Islamic principles do not permit.  

Does Salaam Finance use interest rates?

Do I have to be Muslim to apply?

No. Anyone who values responsible, ethical finance can apply.  

Who holds the title during the agreement?

Your name is registered on the property title from the start, with an understanding that you are purchasing the home according to the agreed financing arrangement.  

Do I need insurance?

Yes. You will be required to arrange appropriate insurance as part of ownership protections.
