Who We Are

We Are Commited to Finding Financial Solutions for the Australian Muslim Community.

Amanah is a Mortgage Manager with an Australian Credit Licence that was formed principally to address the absence of a Shariah compliant home financing solution that meets the standards of globally recognised Shariah scholars whilst also complying with Australian laws and credit regulations. Many Australian Muslims have been forced to stay out of the housing market.

This has resulted in a significant number of Australians who are unable to enjoy the benefits of home ownership. This has Involved Work with Leading Australian Law Firms and Extensive Interaction with the Australian Financial Sector.

We are committed to finding financial solutions for the Australian Muslim community that are consistent with their Islamic faith. We are rigorous about ensuring the Shariah integrity of our products through Shariah audits and on-going testing.
