The minimum age at entry is 18 years and maximum is 60 years provided age at maturity does not exceed 65 years. The term of the policy will be based on the Spouse’s retiring age.
This is an investment savings product that has single, regular or a combination of both contributions. The net amount of the premium will be invested and the Company will declare return on the investment which will accumulate. The value of the policy at any time will be referred to as the Personal Private Account, PPA.

This plan can be set up by a single person or institutions such as Waqfs through its “Mutawalli” i.e. the appointed manager of Waqfs.
The minimum age at entry is 18 years provided age at maturity does not exceed 90 years.
A single contribution plus the applicable regulatory fee will be payable at the start of the policy. Charges shall be deducted from the single contribution and the net amount of the contribution will be invested in properties, and ILA (acting as the Takaful Operator) will declare investment return on the investment which will be paid on a yearly basis. The value of the policy at any time will be referred to as Policy Value.
The minimum single contribution under this plan is Rs 100,000 plus the applicable regulatory fee. Other fees and Charges are further described in section 4.
3. Policy Value
The Policy Value will be the Participant Investment Fund (PIF) as further described in the next section.
4. Mechanism of the fund
4.1. Mode of operation
A single contribution plus the applicable regulatory fee will be payable at the start of the policy also referred to as Date of Commencement. An upfront Wakalah charge, expressed as a percentage of the Single Contribution, will then be deducted from the single contribution received to cover for management expenses such as administration, commissions, management and policy fees.
The regulatory fee and Wakalah charge are provided in the specimen policy document and can be obtained upon request.
A one-off Life Tabarru charge will then be determined and deducted from the single contribution made. The tabarru is dependent on age, occupation, health status and gender. This Tabarru charge will flow directly to the Tabarru Fund and will be used to provide mutual financial benefits to all eligible participants in case of the event of death as further described in Sections 4.5 and 4.6 below.
4.2. Participant Investment Fund
After the above-mentioned deductions have been made, the remaining amount of the single contribution, also referred to as net single contribution, will flow to the Participant Investment Fund (PIF). The PIF is a collective investment pool established by the Takaful Operator in accordance with Shariah Principles and applicable regulatory requirements.
Under this specific scheme, ILA, who will act as Mudarib (Manager), shall invest the net single contribution made by the participants in properties owned by ILA. The related rental income from these properties, net of expenses, shall be further distributed to the participants and Mudarib of the PIF annually.

Participant Notional Share =
Net Single Contribution
Value of Properties at Date of Commencement
4.5. Property valuation and distribution of capital gains
The properties shall also be subject to a valuation on a yearly basis. Any related capital gain shall be distributed between the Mudarib and Participant and be reflected on the participant’s fund value and distributed when the contract is dissolved.
