Abstract: Takaful – an Islamic alternative to conventional in-surance – is fast becoming one of the most important constituents of modern Islamic financial market. The fundamental difference between the two forms of risk mitigation is entrenched from the type of contract selected. The conventional insurance work on the principle of bilateral contracts between the customer (insured) and insurance provider where the insured pay regular premium in return for payment of compensation, in case of a predefined event occurs. On the other hand, Takaful works on the principle of mutual guarantee, cooperation and indemnity where the participants in the scheme mutually insure each other. The Takaful providers are mainly responsible for managing, administering and investigating the Takaful funds according to Islamic laws. This studies provides a decentralized architecture that securely implements Takaful risk mitigation system accord-ing to its principles. Since all major banking sectors are shifting towards Blockchain technology, as it is currently the only viable solution to offers security, transparency, integrity of resources and ensure trustworthiness among customers. The proposed studies offer state-of-the-art Blockchain technology and focus provide a Takaful system that strictly follows the underlying Islamic laws for this risk mitigation system. Moreover, the proposed platform provides all Takaful transactions over Blockchain that brings confidence and transparency to the community involved in the process.
