Naturally, it remains a deep cry in their hearts to fashion and design their economic lives in accordance with the precepts of Islam. The establishment of Islami Bank Bangladesh Limited on March 13, 1983, is the true reflection of this inner urge of its people, which started functioning with effect from March 30, 1983. This Bank is the first of its kind in Southeast Asia. It is committed to conduct all banking and investment activities on the basis of interestfree profit-loss sharing system.

Figure-3: Bai-Mechanism (Trading Mode) (Trading Mode) Under Bai Mechanism banks are invested their money in some different way. Such as: 2.4.1 Bai-Murabaha (Contract Sale on Profit) Meaning The terms “Bai-Murabaha” have been derived from Arabic words and (Bai and Ribhun). The word means purchase and sale and the word “Ribhun” means an agreed upon profit “BaiMurabaha” means sale for on agreed upon profit. Definition of Bai-Murabaha “Bai-Murabaha” may be defined as a contract between a buyer and a seller under which the seller sells certain specific goods permissible under Islamic Shariah and the Law of the land to the buyer at a cost plus an agreed profit payable today or on same date in the future in lump-sum or by installment. The profit may be either a fixed sum or based on a percentage of the price of the good. 2.4.1.1 Steps of Bai-Murabaha First Step: The client submits a proposal regarding his requirements of the bank. The bank responds by sending a counter proposal either accepting the buyer’s price or stipulating a different price. Second Step: The client promises to buy the commodity from the bank on a Bai-Murabaha basis. The bank accepts the order and establishes the terms and conditions of the transaction. Third Step: The bank informs the client (ultimate buyer) of its approval of the agreement to purchase. The bank may pay for the goods immediately or in accordance with the agreement. The seller expresses its approval to the sale and sends the invoice(s).

Fourth Step: The two parties (the bank and the client) sign the Bai-Murabaha Sale contract according to the agreement to purchase. Fifth Step: The Bank authorizes the client or its nominee to receive the commodity. The seller sends the commodity to the place of delivery agreed upon. The client undertakes the receipt of the commodity in its capacity as legal representative and notifies the bank of the execution of the proxy. Types of Bai-Murabaha In respect of dealing parties Bai-Murabaha may be of two types: Ordinary Bai-Murabaha: Ordinary Bai-Murabaha is a direct transaction between a buyer and a seller. Here the seller is ordinary traders who purchase goods from the market in the hopes of selling these goods to anther party for a profit. In this case, the seller undertakes the entire risk of his capital investment in the goods purchased. Where or not he earns a profit depends on his ability to find a buyer for the merchandise he has acquire

Bai-Murabaha on order and promise: This transaction involves three parties the buyer, the seller and Bank. Under this arrangement the bank acts as an intermediary trader between the buyer and seller. In other words, upon receipt of an order and arrangement to purchase product from the buyer, the bank will purchase the product from the seller to fulfill the order. 2.4.2 Bai-Muajjal (Deferred Sale) Meaning of Bai-Muajjal The terms "Bai" and "Muajjal" are derived from the Arabic words 'Bai' and ‘Ajal’. The word 'Bai' means purchase and sale and the word 'Ajal' means a fixed time or a fixed period. "Bai-Muajjal" is a sale for which payment is made at a future fixed date or within a fixed period. In short, it is a sale on credit. Definition The Bai-Muajjal may be defined as a contract between a buyer and a seller under which the seller sells certain specific goods, permissible under Shariah and law of the country, to the buyer at an agreed fixed price payable at a certain fixed future date in lump sum or in fixed installments. 2.4.3 Bai-Salam (Advance payment) Meaning of Bai-Salam The term “Bai” means sales and purchase and “Salam” means advance.”Bai-Salam” means advance sales and purchase. Definition of Bai-Salam Bai-Salam may be defined as a contract between a buyer and a seller under which the seller sells in advance in the certain commodity (ies)/ products (s) permissible under Islamic

Shariah and the law of the land to the buyer at a agreed price payable on execution of the said contract and the commodity (ies)/ products (s) to the buyer at a future time in exchange of an advance price fully paid on the spot. • The seller receives advance payment in exchange for the obligation to deliver the commodity at some later date. He benefits from the Salam sale by locking in a price for his commodity, thereby allowing him to cover his financial needs whether they are personal expenses, family expenses or business expenses. • The purchaser benefits because he receives delivery of the commodity when it is needed to fulfill some other agreement, without incurring storage costs. Second, a Bai-Salam sale is usually less expensive than a cash sale. Finally a Bai-Salam agreement allows the purchase to lock in a price, thus protecting him from price fluctuation. 2.4.4 Bai-Istisna’a Meaning of Bai-Istisna’a The word Istisna’a has been derived from the word “sana” which means Industry. Istisna’a means to purchase specific products by placing order to a manufacturer or to sale specific products after having the same manufactured against order of a buyer. Definition of Istisna'a Sale Intishna’a sale is a contract in which the price is paid in advance at the time of the contract and the object of sale is manufactured and delivered later. The majority of the jurist considered Intishna’a as one of the divisions of Salam; therefore, it is subsumed under the definition of Salam. Steps of Istisna'a Sale • Istisna'a Sale Contract: The Buyer expresses his desire to buy a commodity and brings a request to purchase the commodity to the bank. The method of payment, whether cash or deferred is set forth in the agreement. The bank agrees to deliver the commodity to the buyer at some agreed upon time in the future. • Delivery and Receipt of the Commodity: The seller in the parallel Istisna’a agreement, delivers the commodity to the bank on the agreed upon date. The bank, in turn, delivers the product to the buyer of the original Istisna’a contract, in accordance with the original agreement. In this way, all parties fulfill their obligations to the contract. 2.4.5 Quard The word “Quard” is an Arabic word” which means loan or credit on advance. The literal meaning of Quard is giving “Fungible goods” for use without any extra value returning those goods. It must follow the principle of equal for equal return with homogeneous goods. Fungible goods may be rice, oil, salt, money etc. In banking sector, money is used as quard. Quard is HaIaI by Islam for not to pay any extra or interest in return. Characteristics of Fungible goods1. Goods which are vanished /converted for one time use. 2. No flow of service.

3. Service can’t be separated from the actual goods. Characteristics of Quard There should have fungible goods.  Goods must be returned equally.  There is no extra payment.  To specific period for returning goods.

Profit is divided as per management.  Bank bears the actual loss alone.  Client cannot take another investment for that specific business without the permission of the Bank. 2.5.2 Musharaka (Partnership) Meaning of Musharaka The word Musharaka is derived from the Arabic word Shirkat meaning partnership or sharing. Definition of Musharaka

It’s An Islamic financial technique that involves different types of profit and loss sharing partnership. Share both in the capital and management of a project so that profits will be distributed among them as per rations, where loss is shared according to ratios of their equity participation. In this case both the bank and the client provide capital at an agreed upon ratio and manage the business jointly. Share the cent as per agreed upon ratio and bear the loss, If any, in proportion to their respective equity. Bank may move itself with the selected client for conducting any shariah permissible business under Musharaka mode. Important feature:  The investment client will normally run and manage the business.  The Bank shall take part in the policy and decision making as well as overseeing (supervision and monitoring) the operations of the business of the client. The Bank may appoint suitable person(s) to manage the business and to maintain books of accounts of the business property.  As the investment client shall manage the enterprise, the Bank may pay more share of profit to him than that of his proportionate capital contribution.  Loss, if any, shall be shared on the basis of capital ratio Concluding Remark Financing through a Musharaka partnership is investment-based. The capital provider has full control in the management of the business. In addition, he shares proportionately in both the profits and losses of the business. Therefore, the rate of return is uncertain and can be either positive or negative. The cost of capital is also uncertain and there exists perfect correlation between the relationship of cost of capital and rate of return on capital. 2.6 Ijara mechanism (Leasing Mode) Ijara Mechanism

Findings on the basis of previous analysis and practical experience of 45 days internship program, the following findings are observed during the internship period.

 Investment position of this bank is in moderate level. The bank situated in Commercial place that is why it’s commercial investment is very high in every mode Bi-Mechanism, Share Mechanism, Ijara Mechanism.  Investment recollection position of this branch is increases day by day. Some clients are in overdue position but maximum clients are paid their installment regularly.  Bai Murabaha investment position is slightly lower in previous years because of some lacking norms, values in the investment clients and Bank bears the actual loss alone but Bai Muajjal & HPSM investment is increasing rapidly. 4.2 Recommendations It is not unexpected to have many problems in any organization. We have found some of the problems of general banking and investment section of IBBL. To solve these problems, we can suggest following recommendations  Commercial sector under bai-muajjal mode of investment decreased by 88.63%, bank should increase this type of investment.  Bank should more concentrate on commercial sector under bai-murabaha mode of investment because the amount in 2006 was 1571 lac but in 2009 the amount was 382 lac. This is really treatable for bank.  House building investment sector under bai-muajjal mode of investment; bank should proper step to increase the investment; because in this sector investment decrease by 29.02%.  Bank should invest quard-e-hasna not only their staff but also to the client because this type of investment client can more satisfied to bank.  In opening an account customer facing some employ harassments it should be redeemable, because of satisfies of the client.  Bank should develop their internet facilities very well. We believe that if the bank authority accepted the above mentioned recommendations. That would be better for their bank and betterment for establishing a well reputed modern bank in Bangladesh. 4.3 Conclusion Islami Bank Bangladesh Ltd. is a new generation bank. This bank is committed to provide high quality financial service / product to contribute to the growth of GDP of the country through stimulating accelerating the place of industrialization, creating employment opportunity for the youth, poverty alleviation, raising standard of living of limited of income group and overall sustainable socio economic development of the country. IBBL invests comparatively more fund in the development of the society. It has also operating its general banking operation with great success and been able to make positive image in the customer mind by virtue of its devoted and expert personnel.

Customers are more or less satisfied with the present services of the bank.
