For default payment after maturity date: Compensation (Ta’widh) may be imposed at the rate of 1% p.a. on the overdue balance (overdue principal and accrued profit). Funding Societies may charge both Compensation (Ta’widh) and Penalty (Gharamah) as Late Payment Charges at a maximum rate of 10% p.a.

Can I make an early settlement?
