A modaraba is a type of Islamic partnership where one party, the Rab-ul-Mal (investor), provides capital, and the other party, the Mudarib (manager), contributes their skills and effort to run the business. Profits are shared based on an agreed-upon ratio, but all losses are borne by the Rab-ul-Mal. This is a non-interest-based system that operates on the principles of profit and loss sharing.
