Abstract

The paper proposes that the Islamic bank, as Mudarib and user of the fund, should provide guarantee for the money of depositors. That is, if mudarabah shows the profit, the depositor will also share in it. In case of loss, only the bank will bear the loss, not the depositors. The writer based his argument on the opinion of al Shawkani (d. 1250 H.) which is found in his work “al Sayl al Jarrar”, and the saying of jurists that if the mudarib fund-user handed over it to someone else, he would be held responsible because he violated the rule. He also holds that because of its a necessity some fuqaha tried to cirumvent this probihition through subterfuges. Moreover, the regulatory and supervisory authorities prohibit tendering the monies of depositors to any loss. The researcher suggests that this guarantee by the bank should be based on volunatrism and donation, not by stipulation and agreement. تقترح الورقة أن يقوم المصرف الإسلامي ، بوصفه العامل المضارب ، بضمان أموال المودعين ، بحيث إذا ربحت المضاربة فلرب المال ( المودع ) حصة من الربح ، وإذا خسرت تحمل المصرف الخسارة دون المودع . ويعتمد الباحث على قول للإمام الشوكاني ( ت 250هـ ) في كتابه السيل الجرار ، وعلى قول الفقهاء بأن المضارب إذا دفع مال رب المال إلى مضارب آخر ، فإنه يضمن ، لأنه تعدى ، كما يستند الباحث إلى أن بعض الفقهاء كانوا يحتالون على حرمة هذا الضمان ، لأنهم كانوا يرون ضرورته والحاجة إليه ، ويحتج الباحث أيضا بأن السلطات الرقابية والإشرافية تمنع تعريض أموال المودعين لخطر الخسارة . كما يدعو الباحث إلى أن يكون هذا الضمان من المصرف قائما على التبرع والتطوع ، لا على الشرط والاتفاق .
