Murabaha — Bank Purchases Asset from Supplier
An Islamic bank purchases goods from a supplier on behalf of a customer under Murabaha.

💡 Accountant's Note
In a Murabaha, the bank must genuinely own the asset before selling it to the customer. This brief ownership is essential for Shariah compliance — the bank bears title risk, however momentarily.
