A service agreement is to be signed between an Islamic bank and a service provider company

Fatawa Question

A service agreement is to be signed between an Islamic bank and a service provider company. The service to be rendered is the collection and deposit of cash on a daily basis from and to different branch locations, as per the Islamic bank’s requirements. In order to mitigate the risk of the loss of the collected cash in transit, the Islamic bank wants to make the service provider fully responsible for any event of loss, besides binding the service provider to obtain an insurance policy and identifying therein the Islamic bank as the first beneficiary of the insurance compensation to the extent of loss. This provision is to be clearly reflected in the service agreement signed by both parties. Shariah guidance has been sought in respect of incorporating such provision in the agreement.
