Although the concept of tabarru’ has been widely used as an alternative solution to the existing conventional insurance system, many contentious Shariah issues still arise in applying tabarru’ for takaful. The Bank Negara Malaysia (Central Bank of Malaysia) recently published a discussion paper on ta'awun that emphasized several aspects, such as using surplus generated in takaful funds for donations or financial assistance to third parties not among the existing participants. This issue requires study and investigation from Shariah and regulatory perspectives. Thus, this study aims to explore the general application of ta’awun in takaful and to examine the application of ta’awun in surplus sharing with other takaful operators. The study uses a qualitative semi-structured interview method with experts to collect the primary data. A thematic analysis approach is employed to explore the qualitative data. The study finds that surplus can be shared with other takaful operators after obtaining consent from the participants. Also, a few other practices can be actualized, such as providing qard al-hasan (interest-free loan), the threshold to the surplus, and establishing cross-ta’awun agreements with new participants. It concludes, sharing surplus with other participants requires the takaful operator not to negate the rights of the existing takaful participants. The study recommends further research on revising the aqd of the new product, unifying the tabarru’ contract, and adjusting regulatory frameworks and guidelines. Dissertations, Academic Thesis |

| summary | Tabarru’ in takaful is an arrangement by the participants to forego a specific contribution, which they commit to contribute to the takaful fund to fulfill the mutual obligation of supporting each other in the case any of the participants suffer losses. Although the concept of tabarru’ has been widely used as an alternative solution to the existing conventional insurance system, many contentious Shariah issues still arise in applying tabarru’ for takaful. The Bank Negara Malaysia (Central Bank of Malaysia) recently published a discussion paper on ta'awun that emphasized several aspects, such as using surplus generated in takaful funds for donations or financial assistance to third parties not among the existing participants. This issue requires study and investigation from Shariah and regulatory perspectives. Thus, this study aims to explore the general application of ta’awun in takaful and to examine the application of ta’awun in surplus sharing with other takaful operators. The study uses a qualitative semi-structured interview method with experts to collect the primary data. A thematic analysis approach is employed to explore the qualitative data. The study finds that surplus can be shared with other takaful operators after obtaining consent from the participants. Also, a few other practices can be actualized, such as providing qard al-hasan (interest-free loan), the threshold to the surplus, and establishing cross-ta’awun agreements with new participants.
