Original Note:
This is false. The religion of the purchaser does not affect whether they pay the duty. If the purchaser uses Islamic financing (most Muslims do not, and non-Muslims can) the bank pays the Stamp Duty and the purchaser repays the bank. They pay the same amount in the end. https://www.taxpolicy.org.uk/2023/07/19/islamicfinance/
