Debate over commodity murabahah

Some Islamic scholars think commodity murabahah should be avoided as much as possible, saying it closely resembles an interest-bearing transaction. Is there a better alternative financing structure?

THE concept of commodity murabahah (or tawarruq in some jurisdictions) has only recently been widely applied in Islamic finance, along with other syariah contracts such as mudarabah, musharaka and bai murabahah.
