| description | This is a doctrinal and comparative research between the traditional law and the
syariah with regard to discharge of policies and surrender. The aim is to find
similarities and dissimilarities between life insurance and family takaful vis-à-vis
the issues. The issues are: Discharge of life policies/family takaful and this will
cover discharge by Performance; Payment by Mistake; discharge by agreement,
discharge by breach and cancellation. Moreover, the researcher explore surrender
under life insurance and family takaful, which will deliberate on the concept and
procedure for surrender. It has been found that both the traditional law and the
syariah agree that a contract of life insurance and family takaful may be discharged
by performance, by agreement, by breach, payment by mistake and cancellation.
With regard to surrender, it has been found that both the Financial Services Act
2013 and the Islamic Financial Services Act 2013 allow it. It has been submitted
that surrender is not against the syariah, since the purpose is to ensure good for
the participants provided it is done in accordance with fair dealing. Moreover, both
the traditional law and the syariah share the same view in the procedure for the
surrender as it is required to be in a writing form. |
