Wadiah
Wadiah is the simple contract which in a simpler term can be called as safe-keeping. In Islamic banking, wadiah refers to the deposited property, the acceptance of sums of money for safe-keeping in a Shari'ah-compliant framework, under which it will be repaid. Islamic banks use the concept of Wadiah to accept deposits from customers. A bank is deemed as a keeper and trustee of funds and becomes wholly responsible and liable for its safekeeping with a guarantee refund of the entire amount of the deposit, or any part of the outstanding amount, when the depositor demands repayment. The bank may at its discretion and in certain circumstances reward the customer with a payment in the form of Hibah as appreciation for keeping the funds with the bank.
