Abstract

Islamic financial contracts necessarily need to abide by Shariah principles. As such, some contracts have been introduced for risk-hedging real transactions that differ from those seen in conventional financial markets. In this paper, we examine two such products, Al-Urbun and Al-Istijrar, and determine fair prices for both the Al-Urbun and a class of Al-Istijrar under the Black–Scholes framework.
