Chapter 6

Mudarabah is a contract where one party provides capital and the other provides labor and management. Profits are shared according to a predetermined ratio, while losses are borne solely by the capital provider. Accounting for mudarabah financing requires recognizing the asset when delivered to the mudarib. Income is recognized when profits are realized, while any losses reduce undistributed profits or are borne by the capital provider. Financial statements must disclose balances and transactions related to mudarabah financing.
