Global and National development
of Takaful
Origin of Modern Takaful Western socio-economic, political, and legal orders overshadowed Islamic and
traditional local norms Muslim Revival and Renaissance began around the 1920s on multiple
fronts
As a result, development of Islamic Banking started in 1970s
Dubai Islamic Bank, the first commercial Islamic bank, was established in 1975
There was a legal requirement that Islamic banks’ underlying assets be insured e.g. Car Ijarah
Islamic banks could not avail insurance from conventional companies as that would be antithetical to the cause
The need for a practical risk mitigation mechanism grew as the Islamic banking industry grew
First Takaful company was established in Sudan in 1979, four years after the establishment of the first Islamic bank
Need for Takaful was felt after the development of Islamic Banking
1975 First Islamic
Bank
1979 First Takaful Co.

History of Takaful in Pakistan
Takaful Operational Model
Takaful Arrangements can be broadlydivided into the following two categories:
Family Takaful covers
All risks associated with human life, like
- death,
- disability and illness
- short-term and long-term investment needs
General Takaful covers
All risks associated with Physical Assets and Property,
like
- house,
- marine,
- motor,
- engineering and misc.
Three Operational Models
Pure Mudarbah Practiced earlier, it is no longer in use.
Pure Wakalah This model in not widely practiced.
Hybrid – Wakalah + Mudarbah
This is the most prevalent model.
Hybrid- Wakalah+
Mudarbah+ Waqf
This model was suggested by Shari’ah Scholars in Pakistan.

Surplus Distribution
After deducting the Wakalah Fees, Claims, Re-Takaful
Contributions, Contingency Reserves and Charities etc. the
remaining amount in the pool is to be distributed between the
participants; it does not go to the shareholders
Though Takaful companies are marketing surplus distribution
as USP of Takaful, very few have distributed surplus. This is
mainly due to high up front Wakalah fee and poor underwriting.
In some territories surplus is shared be y the operator as well
which makes Takaful similar to conventional insurance and is
damaging the overall industry image.
