Source of funds when offering Islamic finance

Fatawa Question

Salam Dr. Kahf. Would you please clarify one thing for me regarding Shari’ah compliance ? I have an internal struggle and confusion. If an Islamic financial institute gives you a loan for a purchased property but they borrows the money from fanny Mae or other American financial institutes would this be acceptable and Shari’ah compliant ? And is this what really happen or do I have misunderstanding about the issue ? In other words, where do Islamic financial institutes get their money from ? also, do you know of any Islamic institutes which they loan their own money ? would you please elaborate on this issue and give me a piece of mind to deal with this mental fatigue ? And what are the issues that I need to watch for when I deal with an Islamic bank and be Shari’ah compliance ? May Allah reward you. Jazaka Allahu Khayran ! Hashem,
