Looking for a halal mortgage in London, Birmingham, or Manchester? Fraser Bond explains how Sharia-compliant home finance works, the Islamic Home Purchase Plans available in the UK, and how buyers, homeowners, and investors can purchase property without a conventional interest-based mortgage.
Halal Mortgages in London, Birmingham and Manchester
London, Birmingham, and Manchester are among the UK's most popular cities for homebuyers and property investors. They are also home to large Muslim communities seeking Sharia-compliant home finance as an alternative to conventional mortgages.
Rather than charging or paying interest (riba), halal mortgages—more accurately known as Home Purchase Plans (HPPs)—use ownership, leasing, or partnership structures designed to comply with Islamic finance principles.
Fraser Bond supports buyers across London, Birmingham, Manchester, and the wider UK by providing expert property consultancy and helping clients explore suitable property finance options.
What Is a Halal Mortgage?
A halal mortgage is a Sharia-compliant method of financing property.
Instead of lending money with interest, the finance provider purchases or jointly owns the property and enters into an agreement with the customer.
Common Islamic finance structures include:
Home Purchase Plan (HPP)
Diminishing Musharakah
Ijara (Lease-to-Own)
Murabaha (available for certain property transactions)
These arrangements are generally reviewed by Sharia supervisory boards to ensure compliance with Islamic finance principles.
