Ijara is an Islamic leasing arrangement where the bank owns the asset and leases it to the customer. Similar to conventional lease but Shariah-compliant. Payments cover amortisation of asset minus residual value.
20,000 asset, 48-month lease, 5% rate, 5,000 residual: 355 monthly, total 22,040, profit portion 2,040. The residual can be bought at end or returned to lessor.
Used for cars, equipment, and property. Legal structure differs from Murabaha (this is a lease, not a sale) but both deliver usage rights for regular payments.
Run it with sensible defaults
Using asset value of 20,000, lease months of 48, profit rate of 5%, residual value of 5,000, the calculation works out to 345.44. Nudge the inputs toward your own situation and the output recalculates instantly. The defaults are meant as a starting point, not a recommendation.
The levers in this calculation
The inputs — Asset Value, Lease Months, Profit Rate, and Residual Value — do not pull with equal force. Not every input has equal weight. Flip one at a time toward extreme values to feel which ones move the needle most for your situation.
How the math works
Standard amortisation on (asset - residual) over lease months at monthly profit rate. The working is transparent — you can verify every step yourself in the formula section below. No black box, no opaque "proprietary model".
Why payoff plans work
Debt feels overwhelming when it's an abstract total. Break it into a payoff date and a monthly figure and the problem becomes finite — you can see the finish line. That visibility is what this tool provides, and for many people it's the difference between dithering and acting.
What this doesn't capture
Real payoff journeys include missed payments, fee changes, balance transfers, and promotional rates that reset. The calculation assumes a steady plan; reality is rarely that clean. Use the figure as the best-case plan against which actual progress gets measured.
£20,000 £ × 5% over 48 monthsmo - £5,000 £ = $345.44.
