Is Takaful coverage required?

Takaful coverage is optional, though Bank Rakyat encourages applicants to sign up for a policy from its panel of Takaful providers.

Takaful coverage can help settle the outstanding balance of the financing in the event of death or permanent disablement.

Can Bank Rakyat Personal Financing-i Private be settled early?

Yes, at zero cost. Applicants instead receive an Ibra' (rebate), which is the deferred profit that hasn't yet been accounted for as earned profit.

What documents does the application need?

Can someone with a poor credit history still apply?

Credit history with other financial institutions matters here, since debts like credit cards, personal loans, home loans, and car loans all show up in CCRIS/CTOS. These systems record credit history, they don't blacklist people.

Anyone with a history of late payments is better off breaking that habit and paying on time from now on. Bank Rakyat is more likely to approve applicants who show they're managing their money well, rather than taking on more debt.
