Resolution No.(18) by the Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies: 
"Ruling on Islamic Mudarabah for Social Solidarity"
Date: 10/5/1411 AH, corresponding to 27/11/1990

We have received the following question:

What is the ruling of Islamic Sharia on Islamic Mudarabah (co-partnership) for social solidarity and investment for protecting employers, Rahn (security) and students?

Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds; and may His peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Mohammad and upon all his family and companions.

Over several sessions, the Board has reviewed the above system of Mudarabah. After thorough examination of its particulars pertaining to the protection of employers, Rahn and students, the Board found that they involve no violation to the rules of Islamic Sharia; therefore, it approves them as they are. And Allah Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

Is it permissible for a woman who broke fasting due to a delivery to pay a ransom?

She should make up for the missed fasting days once she becomes ritually pure, but it is impermissible for her to pay a ransom while being able to fast.

Is it permissible for a person to sever ties with his sister because her husband had quit prayer and done him harm?

A sister is a blood-relative and maintaining blood-relations is obligatory in Islam. As regards her husband, he should be invited to the way of Allah with wisdom and beautiful preaching.

A man break his fast once during Ramadan and he already have an expiation of fasting for two consecutive months. He fasted for a month and passed away. Is it permissible for his sons to fast the remaining month equally? 

Fasting for expiation must be performed consecutively. I advise his children to feed sixty poor people, giving each one half a kilogram of rice or its monetary equivalent. This is because if a living person is unable to fast, they are required to feed sixty poor people, and death constitutes an inability. And Allah The  Almighty Knows Best.
