Salam
Asad Mazhaer
Purpose of Salam
To meet the need of small farmers who need
money to grow their crops
Asad Mazhaer
Conditions of Salam
1. Only those goods can be sold through a Salam contract in
which the quantity and quality can be exactly specified
e.g. precious stones cannot be sold on the basis of Salam
because each stone differ in quality, size, weight and their
exact specification is not possible.
Asad Mazhaer
Parallel Salam
In an arrangement of parallel Salam there must be two
different and independent contracts; one where the bank
is a buyer and the other in which it is a seller. The two
contracts cannot be tied up and performance of one
should not be contingent on the other.
