The Fuqaha have classified partnerships into four categories, namely Sharikat al-’Inan (contractual partnership), Sharikat al-Abdan (skilled trade partnership), Sharikat al-Mufawadah (agency-like partnership) and Sharikat al-Wujuh (creditworthiness or reputation partnership). The most important of all is Sharikat al- ’Inan (contractual partnership). The permissibility of this form of partnership is established by the Qur`an, the Sunnah and practical consensus of the Fuqaha.
