Is Emirates Islamic right for you?

Best for

Buyers who want Sharia-compliant home finance with the digital tools and network of a large banking group, and existing Emirates NBD Group customers.

Look elsewhere if

You want the single lowest Islamic profit rate — NBF, DIB or ADIB may price lower in a given month.

Emirates Islamic mortgage rates & products

Emirates Islamic's home finance quotes a profit rate rather than interest, indicatively from around 4.20% p.a. for a 2-year fixed in 2026 (reverting to EIBOR + a margin around 1.50%). Pricing is competitive within the Islamic field, and the product benefits from Emirates NBD Group infrastructure — strong digital banking, servicing and reach. Note that Emirates Islamic periodically adjusts financing-to-value by employment sector, so eligibility can depend on your industry.

Emirates Islamic eligibility

Emirates Islamic lends to UAE nationals and resident expats under standard Central Bank caps (80% expat / 85% national first home under AED 5M, 50% DBR, up to 25 years). Because it revises expat financing-to-value by sector from time to time, your industry can affect the maximum LTV — we confirm current policy for your situation. Backed by ENBD, its processing is well resourced.

Emirates Islamic vs comparing the whole market

Emirates Islamic may well be your best option — but the only way to know is to compare it against every other UAE lender for your exact profile. On a AED 1.5 million, 25-year mortgage, the gap between the sharpest and a mid-market rate can be around AED 150,000 over the term. That's why we place your profile in front of 20+ UAE banks, conventional and Islamic, and bring you the best — free, because the bank pays us on completion, never you. You take Emirates Islamic only if it genuinely wins.
