About Sukuk bonds  

Sukuk is derived from the word Sakk, which can be translated to mean legal instrument, deed, and cheque. Sakk can also mean to strike a deal on a paper document.

The origin of Sukuk dates to 7th century AD, where the first Sukuk transaction took place in Damascus, Syria in the Great Mosque of Damascus (Umayyad Mosque).

Since Islam prohibits usury – collecting interest from your loans – interest-based bonds are banned in Muslim nations.

Difference between Sukuk and regular bonds

Sukuk indicates ownership of an asset. The assets that back Sukuk are compliant with Shariah. In other words, such assets adhere to the Islamic prohibitions on gambling, alcohol, tobacco, narcotics, and adult entertainment products and services.

Sukuk notes pay a fixed percentage return as a profit-sharing percentage of the underlying assets’ revenues.

Regular bonds, on the other hand, pay a fixed rate of return as interest (coupon) semi-annually or annually.
