The Amish and many Muslims object to insurance on principal. It is akin to gambling, which is verboten, though Islamic banking institutions have workarounds, and certain Muslims who I know, but won’t name names, think Imams are making a bit of a stretch and don’t worry about it. They have mortgages, fire insurance, and car insurance just like everyone else.
