Under AAOIFI Shari'ah Standard No. 25 on combination of contracts, which arrangement is generally problematic?

Documenting a sale and a separate agency with clear sequential roles An ijarah followed later by a separate sale of the asset at an agreed price after the lease Combining a loan with a sale so the package effectively embeds a contractual interest charge Using a unilateral promise (wa'd) that is not itself treated as the completed sale

Combining a loan with a sale so the package effectively embeds a contractual interest charge
