Islamic insurance industry began the first Islamic insurance company in Sudan

Islamic insurance industry began its first Islamic insurance company in Sudan and in the year 1979. The growth rate of the insurance sector compatible with the provisions of Islamic Sharia " Islamic insurance " between 20 25 % per annum while the growth of the commercial insurance sector ratio ranging between 6 and 7 % per annum and is due to the growth of the Islamic financial sector in general. The number of Islamic insurance companies in the Arab world is currently about 114 companies and nearly 220 companies in the world.
Definition of Islamic insurance ( Cooperative ) : It is from decades donation intended to originality cooperation to break up the dangers and to participate in taking responsibility when it is disaster through contribution of persons amounts of cash earmarked for compensation from the fall ill, damage, Fjmaih cooperative insurance does not target the trade and profit from the funds of others but they mean the distribution of hazards , including cooperation to withstand damage. The cooperative insurance devoid of usury both types Lord credit and usurythe ,  decades asthmatic shareholders do not take advantage of what the collection of premiums in asthmatic transactions .
It is clear from the foregoing that the Islamic insurance ( Cooperative ): is an agreement between a group custodians , and the commitment of every member of the custodians in which about others does not depend on how much you pay the premium , but its limits are the share of public danger , because this is the meaning of cooperation and interdependence. It is also no objection to the investment of insurance premiums for the benefit of their owners , but requires to be within the scope of permissible purposes. And the insurance company Cooperative Company and function management of funds and not security as is the case in commercial insurance companies , and the company's relationship to this wallet ( money ) is based on the Agency is managing the portfolio for a fee lump stipulated in the Convention, and profit if the check is for subscribers as well as the loss will be on them as the agent to be trusted and is not a guarantor , and thus  of insurance premiums after the payment of compensation belongs to the subscribers.
Perhaps the relationship on the basis of speculation , so the company manages the portfolio speculator part of the profit earned from the investment , and in this case the company is not worth only a portion of the profit if the check .
Some may wonder about the difference between commercial insurance and Islamic insurance :
* Significant difference in terms of the nature of the contract and investment benefits and premiums , in the Islamic insurance process should be based on mutual insurance among the participants and everyone pays them is donated it to the portfolio that gets them compensation. فكأنهم collecting their risks as well as their money to donate to the joint them Balrcn to help his brothers in the event of a hated it.
* The nature of the contract in the commercial insurance is held netting included tricked unforgivable , and the ambiguity of the things that invalidate contracts in Islamic law, the believer in a commercial insurance salesman insurance policy owner for the price of a premium and the insured buyer of policy worthy of the consideration upon the occurrence of the risk insured and therefore  of insurance premiums after the payment of compensation belongs to the insurance company.
* The commercial insurance company are not subject to invest premiums to any restrictions only legal restrictions and the expected profit from the investment in the Islamic insurance companies addition to taking into account the legal and investment profits investment must be compatible with the provisions of Islamic Sharia .
* The main objection on the wording of the insurance business is that they were deceived and risk , so that the payment of repository sum of money to the insurance company trade versus security entails entering into a contract similar contracts gambling , he held a probabilistic probably happened in the end, compensation represents fold pay and perhaps to pay those fees did not get anything , all pending orders probabilistic accident is provided in the policy , and this of decades ambiguity that reportedly forbidding her in an interview with the Messenger of Allah , peace be upon him .

* The ambiguity in the language is the danger and deception In the idiosyncratic terminology is the consequence Mastour , and defined by some scholars as " rumors between two things , one I think ."* Instead of the sale of the insurance company 's commercial insurance policy , we have made in the Islamic custodians growing up insurance , including protecting the portfolio risk and enough to compensate for the impact of it hated them , which is based on the donation netting .
Islamic insurance importance in economic terms :
The definition of insurance in economic terms is : a tool to reduce the risk faced by the individual by assembling a sufficient number of units exposed to that same risk (  and home depot ... etc. ) to make the losses suffered by each individual predictable as a collective , and then each owner unit locked up share attributable to that risk.The definition of insurance legally is: contract of a pledge whereby a party for a fee to compensate the other party for the loss if caused by an accident specified in the contract, and is committed to the insured under which lead to the insured or to the beneficiary , who spoke on insurance in favor of a sum of money or income salary or any Awad other financial in the event of accident or check the danger that is specified in the contract and in the peer- premium or any financial boost performed by the insured for the insured .
The Islamic insurance service productivity important as the episode of the economy interrelated protection is granted to all elements of the production and maintains the economic situation of the family in particular and society in general , as it supports the confidence and trust in the community and who are among the most important factors in increasing production and continuity of economic life and stability.
Of the most important features that characterize the economy upscale is the compatibility and interdependence existing between the insurance sector and the banking sector through policies and laws in place thereon; and achieve continued development of the tributaries of this economy, agriculturally and commercially and culturally , to the economy, a solid integrated .
The principle of social solidarity, one of the basic pillars of the Muslim community, and the concept of solidarity on the subject of Islamic insurance based on the collection of humanitarian forces in society in order to maintain the payment of damages for the social construction and residence on a sound footing . Perhaps informed picture of social solidarity as stated in the hadith him peace be upon him " the insured for the insured Kalpnian  pull together " and saying peace be upon him "like the believers in their mutual love , mercy like the flesh if complained to a member falter, the rest of the body ensuring and fever ."
He urged God Almighty , on cooperation and interdependence in more than one place in the Holy Book where God Almighty said " virtue, righteousness and piety do not help one another in sin and aggression" that cooperation through which materialize the principles of Islamic insurance cooperative . Islamic insurance and enjoys the instinctive acceptance of the dealers with insurance companies committed to the provisions of Islamic Sharia law in all its dealings , including:
