This means different organizations use the same Islamic contract but with different applications. These models, which are Wakalah, Mudarabah, Waqaf and the Hybrid model, have several shortcomings that need to be studied and addressed to strengthen global Islamic insurance industry. The two challenging issues that are studied are the ownership of the Islamic insurance risk fund or the contribution fund and the surplus distribution accumulated from the risk fund. There are differences of opinion regarding Shari’ah compliance of certain practices. This has led to layers of regulatory differences in countries like Bahrain, Malaysia, and Sudan, resulting in initiation of separate regulatory frameworks for Islamic insurance as a medium to ensure rapid growth and encourage Islamic insurance. This study adopts MANOVA because there are multiple dependent variables as well as independent variables within the constructs of the research…
