Impact of Riba
In Islam, Riba (interest) is strictly prohibited as it fosters inequality and exploitation. For Muslims seeking to avoid Riba, traditional home financing options present a significant challenge.
Despite having similar income levels to the average American, there is currently a 25% gap in homeownership among Muslim Americans, highlighting the barriers to accessible homeownership for this community. This leaves many families in a difficult position—wanting to own a home but unable to do so without compromising their values.
This is why we started Neeyah—to provide a Shariah-compliant, interest-free solution that empowers families to achieve homeownership while staying true to their faith.
