Pemakaian prinsip bahawa Ibra' hanya diberikan apabila penyelesaian awal dibuat boleh dilihat di dalam kes Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Bhd v Reka Indah Development (Penang) Sdn Bhd & Ors [2021] MLJU 389 di mana diputuskan antara lain seperti berikut: "Ibra' is not deducted from the amount claimed [45] The Defendants submitted that the amount due as at 31.12.2019 of RM41,300,758.89 claimed by the Plaintiff was wrong as the Plaintiff had omitted to deduct a rebate (Ibra') from the amount claimed as the Facilities were terminated by the Plaintiff before the expiry of the tenure of the Facility. According to the Defendants, the deduction of such rebate must be made at the time of filing of the claim and without doing this the claim of the Plaintiff is defective. [46] I find that this submission is of no merit. [47] Item 6, Section 2 of both the 1st Letter of Offer and $ ^{2} $ $ ^{nd} $ Letter of Offer clearly provides that Ibra' is only granted when there is an early settlement of the Murabahah Sale Price: "6. Ibra'(Rebate) A. In the event the Customer makes an early settlement of the Murabahah Sale Price, the Bank shall grant an Ibra' (rebate) to the Customer in accordance with the prevailing policy and procedure of the Bank and to be calculated based on the following formula..." [48] The Courts have consistently held that a financier bank has no obligation to give Ibra' where there is no early settlement of the financing. [49] In Maybank Islamic Bhd v. Kamarulzaman Bin Mohamed Nordin [2014] 7 MLJ 685 the High Court held that the facility provider is entitled to claim the whole outstanding amount including unearned profit or Ibra' in the event of default on the part of the defendant to settle the outstanding under the facility. The Court stated: "Was the Plaintiff entitled to unearned profit [36] The plaintiff was entitled to claim the whole outstanding amount including "un-earned profit" in event of default on the part of the defendant to settle the outstanding under the BBA (see Islamic Banking Practice: From the Practitioners Perspective, Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad, 1994 where the plaintiff as the bank which provided the housing financing shall be entitled to claim the whole sum granted to the defendant plus profits, (see Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad v Adnan Bin Omar [1994] 3 CLJ 735)." [50] In CIMB Islamic Bank Bhd v. LCL Corp Bhd & Anor [2011] 7 CLJ 594 it was held that a facility customer was not entitled to Ibra' when he has not made early settlement. The Court held: [37] The SAC in its 95th meeting held on 28 January 2010 had decided that in line with the need to safeguard maslahah (public interest) and to ensure justice to the financiers and customers, Islamic banking institutions are obliged to grant ibra' to customers for early settlement of financing based on buy and sell contracts (such as bai' bithaman ajil or murabahah). In order to eliminate uncertainties pertaining to customers' rights in receiving ibra' from Islamic banking institutions, the granting of ibra' must be included as a clause in the legal documentation of the financing. The determination of ibra' formula will be standardised by Bank Negara Malaysia (see Resolutions of Shariah Advisory Council of Bank Negara Malaysia on Ta'widh, Ibra and Late Payment Charge, Islamic Banking and Takaful Department, BNM/RH/NT 008-8, at p. 2). The effective date of this resolution is 7 June 2010. [40] The crucial word here is "an early settlement". Do these words include the early termination by the plaintiff upon default on the part of the defendants? [42] On that basis, this court finds that in paras.21 and 22 of the letter of offer, it was agreed that the 1st defendant shall be given the right to make early settlement on the BBA Facility and the plaintiff shall be entitled to grant ibra' and the plaintiffs calculation of ibra' shall be final and binding. It was further agreed that for entitlement of ibra' on early settlement basis of the selling price, the 1st defendant is required to give three days advance notice to the plaintiff, which early settlement must be made on a profit payment date. However, should the notice is less than three days, the plaintiff shall be entitled to grant a lower ibra'. [43] On the plain reading of the said letter, the early settlement only refers to a situation when the 1st defendant makes early payment of the BBA Facility before the end of the tenure without compulsion. Unfortunately, it was not the defendants' case as until to date, there is still no effort to settle the outstanding. [44] For the foregoing reasons, the defendants' contention must fail. The plaintiff is under no obligation neither duty to grant an ibra' to the defendants." (emphasis added) [51] See also: Bank Pertanian Malaysia Bhd v. Seiko Marine Products Sdn Bhd & Ors [2017] 8 MLJ 355; Small Medium Enterprise Development Bank Malaysia Berhad v. Savvy Valley Sdn Bhd & Ors [Suit No. WA-22M-621-12/2018. [52] Further, a judgment can be entered without applying Ibra' but unearned profit will be deducted from the judgment sum when settlement is made subsequently as held in Bank Islam Malaysia Bhd v. Azhar bin Osman & Other Cases [2010] 9 MLJ 192 (High Court). [53] In Islamic Finance: Recovery, Rescheduling & Restructuring of Islamic Financial and Capital Market Products and Services in Malaysia (2nd edition) by Mohd Johan Lee, the learned author provided an explanation on how a plaintiff should plead Ibra' in a statement of claim at pages 152 to 153. It was explained that, at the time of filling the statement of claim the plaintiff may state that Ibra' will be given upon settlement by the customer and on the day of settlement, the parties will then crystallise the exact amount of Ibra' if the original facility tenure has yet to be matured/ expired. His commentary is as follows: "Similarly, at the time of the filling of the summons, the statement of claims may state that ibra' will be given upon settlement by the customer and late payment penalty will be imposed. In the judgment, it will be prudent to state the judgment sum (before ibra') plus late payment penalty (or ta'widh only if the financier so instructs) of RM... This judgment sum will then further be subjected to the late payment penalty (post-judgment) as provided under Order 42 Rule 12A of the ROC 2012. On the day of settlement, the parties will then crystallise the exact amount of ibra', and late payment penalty. If a judgment is entered into on 31 st May, 2017, the amount stated in the judgment is RM50,000-00 and RM200 of ta'widh as of judgment date. Presuming the customer settled the judgment debt on 30th May, 2019, the financier is entitled to 10% late payment penalty as provided under Order 42 Rule 12A (5% per annum for 2 years). It is at this point in time that the parties will crystallise the ibra' amount if the original facility tenure has yet to be matured/expired." [54] Paragraph 7.4 of Bank Negara Malaysia's Islamic Banking and Guideline on Ibra' (Rebate) for Sale-Based Financing provides as follows: "7.4 IFIs are required to ensure that the customers are duly informed on the applicability of ibra' in the redemption statement or other documents issued by IFIs to the customers for the purpose of recovery (such as letter/notice of demand) and in the Statement of Claim prepared for litigation cases. At minimum, IFIs are expected to disclose the following:
