| Disclosure of basis of preparation of financial statements [text block] | 2. BASIS OF PREPERATION (a) Basis of presentation The interim condensed financial information of the Company has been prepared in accordance with ‘International Accounting Standard 34 - Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34") as modified by SAMA for the accounting of zakat and income tax’, which requires, adoption of all IFRSs as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) except for the application of International Accounting Standard (IAS) 12 - “Income Taxes” and IFRIC 21 - “Levies” so far as these relate to zakat and income tax. As per the SAMA Circular no. 381000074519 dated April 11, 2017 and subsequent amendments through certain clarifications relating to the accounting for zakat and income tax (“SAMA Circular”), the zakat and income tax are to be accrued on a quarterly basis through shareholders equity under retained earnings. The interim condensed financial information is prepared under the going concern basis and the historical cost convention, except for the measurement at fair value of available for sale investments. The Company’s interim condensed statement of financial position is not presented using a current/non-current classification. However, the following balances would generally be classified as current: cash and cash equivalents, term deposits, premiums and reinsurers’ receivable, net, re insurance share of unearned premiums, reinsurance share of outstanding claims, deferred policy acquisition costs, deferred excess of loss premiums, prepaid expenses and other assets and investments with the exception of available for sale investments in insurance operations. The following balances would generally be classified as non-current property and equipment, statutory deposit, accrued interest on statutory deposit and available for sale investments in insurance operations As required by the Saudi Arabian Insurance Regulations, the Company maintains separate books of accounts for Insurance Operations and Shareholders’ Operations and presents the financial information accordingly. Assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses clearly attributable to either activity are recorded in the respective accounts. The interim condensed statement of financial position, statement of income and statement of comprehensive income and cash flows of the insurance operations and shareholders operations which are presented in note 15 of the financial information have been provided as supplementary financial information and to comply with the requirements of the guidelines issued by SAMA implementing regulations. SAMA implementing regulations requires the clear segregation of the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of the Insurance Operations and the Shareholders Operations. Accordingly, the interim condensed statements of financial position, statements of income, comprehensive income and cash flows prepared for the insurance operations and shareholders operations as referred below in note 15 reflect only the assets, liabilities, income, expenses and comprehensive gains or losses of the respective operations. In preparing the Company-level financial information in compliance with IFRS, the balances and transactions of the insurance operations are amalgamated and combined with those of the shareholders’ operations. Interoperation balances, transactions and unrealised gains or losses, if any, are eliminated in full during amalgamation. The accounting policies adopted for the Insurance Operations and Shareholders Operations are uniform for like transactions and events in similar circumstances. Surplus from insurance operations’ and actuarial reserves from employee benefits are shown separately as Insurance Operations’ Surplus in the statement of financial position. The Company is required to distribute 10% of the net surplus from insurance operations to policyholders and the remaining 90% is to be allocated to the shareholders of the Company in accordance with the Insurance Law and Implementation Regulations issued by the Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority (“SAMA”). Any deficit arising on insurance operations is transferred to the shareholders’ operations in full. The interim condensed financial information do not include all of the information required for full annual financial information and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial information as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017. These interim condensed financial information are expressed in Saudi Arabian Riyals (SAR) and are rounded off to the nearest thousands. (b) Critical accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions The preparation of interim financial information requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In preparing these interim condensed financial information, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty including the risk management policies were the same as those that were applied to the annual financial information as at and for the year ended 31December 2017. (c) Seasonality of operations The Company operates in an industry where significant seasonal or cyclical variations in operating income are experienced during the financial year. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Disclosure of summary of significant accounting policies, general comment [text block] | 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies used in the preparation of these interim condensed financial information are consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual financial information for the year ended 31 December 2017 except for the adoption of the following new standards and other amendments to existing standards mentioned below which have had no significant financial impact on the unaudited interim condensed financial statements of the Company in the current period or prior period and is expected to have no significant effect in future periods. Certain figures for the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the presentation made in the current period: Amendments to IASs’ - “Disclosure Initiative” applicable from 1 January 2018. IFRS 2 Share-based payment Amendments to IFRS 2 – “Share-based Payment”, applicable for the period beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The amendments cover classification and measurement of three accounting areas, first, measurement of cash-settled share-based payments, second, classification of share-based payments settled net of tax withholdings, and third, accounting for a modification of a share-based payment from cash-settled to equity-settled. The application of this new standard has no material impact on the Company’s interim condensed financial statements. IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers IFRS 15 – “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” applicable from 1 January 2018 presents a five-step model to determine when to recognize revenue, and at what amount. The application of this standard could have a significant impact on how and when revenue is recognized (except for contracts that are within the scope of the Standards on lease insurance contracts and financial instruments), with new estimates and judgments, and the possibility of revenue recognition being accelerated or deferred. The application of this new standard has no material impact on the Company’s interim condensed financial statements. Standards issued but not yet effective In addition to the above-mentioned standards, the following standards and interpretations that are issued, but not yet effective, up to the date of issuance of the Company’s condensed financial statements are disclosed below. The Company intends to adopt these standards, if applicable, when they become effective. Further, the Company has chosen not to early adopt the amendments and revisions to the International Financial Reporting Standards, which have been published and are mandatory for compliance for the Company with effect from future dates. IFRS 9 Financial Instruments The implementation of IFRS 9 is expected to result in a significant portion of financial assets currently classified as available-for-sale being re-classified as at fair value through profit or loss or fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI). Credit allowances for financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in OCI, are expected to increase due to the introduction of the expected credit loss methodology. The Company will avail of the exemptions available to insurers and is considering deferring the implementation of IFRS 9 until a later date, but no later than January 1, 2021. The impact of the adoption of IFRS 9 on the Company’s financial information will, to a large extent, have to take into account the interaction with the forthcoming insurance contracts standard. At the date of publication of these financial statements, it was not practicable to quantify what the potential impact would be on the financial statements once IFRS 9 will be adopted. IFRS 17 - Insurance Contracts IFRS 17 ‘Insurance contracts’ was published on May 18, 2017 with the effective date of 1 January 2021. IFRS 17 provides comprehensive guidance on accounting for insurance contracts and investment contracts with discretionary participation features. For non-life and short-term life insurance contracts IFRS 17 introduces mandatory discounting of loss reserves as well as a risk adjustment for non-financial risk, for which confidence level equivalent disclosure will be required. Further, IFRS 17 will change the presentation of insurance contract revenue, as gross premiums written will no longer be presented in profit or loss. At the date of publication of these financial statements, it was not practicable to quantify what the potential impact would be on the financial statements once IFRS 17 will be adopted. IFRS 16 Leases IFRS 16 – “Leases”, is applicable for the period beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The new standard eliminates the current dual accounting model for lessees under IAS 17, which distinguishes between on-balance sheet finance leases and off-balance sheet operating leases. Instead, IFRS 16 proposes on-balance sheet accounting model. The management believes that the adoption of IFRS 16 will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description of accounting policy for segment reporting [text block] | 10. OPERATING SEGMENTS Operating segments are identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Company that are regularly reviewed by the Company’s Board of Directors in their function as chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their performance. Transactions between the operating segments are on normal commercial terms and conditions. The revenue from external parties reported to the Board is measured in a manner consistent with that in the condensed statement of income. Segment assets and liabilities comprise operating assets and liabilities. There have been no changes to the basis of segmentation or the measurement basis for the segment profit or loss since December 31, 2017. Segment assets do not include (in respect of insurance operations) property and equipment, due from shareholders’ operations, bank balances and cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses and other assets, premiums and reinsurance balances receivable, net. Accordingly, these are included in unallocated assets and are managed and reported to the chief operating decision maker on a centralized basis. Segment liabilities do not include (in respect of insurance operations) employees’ end of service benefits, reinsurance balances payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities. Accordingly these are included in unallocated liabilities and are managed and reported to the chief operating decision maker on a centralized basis. These unallocated assets and liabilities are not reported to chief operating decision maker under related segments and are monitored on a centralized basis. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

* This represents an investment in respect of the Company’s shareholding in Najm for Insurance Services which is a Claim’s Service Provider. This investment has been carried at cost in the absence of an active market or other means of reliably measuring its fair value.

| Disclosure of investments at fair value through statement of income [text block] | 9. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction takes place either: - in the accessible principal market for the asset or liability, or - in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous accessible market for the asset or liability The fair values of on-balance sheet financial instruments are not significantly different from their carrying amounts included in the interim condensed financial information. Determination of fair value and fair value hierarchy The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments: Level 1: quoted prices in active markets for the same or identical instrument that an entity can access at the measurement date; Level 2: quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities or other valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are based on observable market data; and Level 3: valuation techniques for which any significant input is not based on observable market data. The following table shows the carrying amount and fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy for financial instruments measured at fair value. It does not include fair value information for financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value if the carrying amount is a reasonable approximation to fair value.
The unlisted security of SR 1.92 million (2017: SR 1.92 million) held as part of Company’s insurance operations, were stated at cost in the absence of active markets or other means of reliably measuring their fair value. During the period ended 30 September 2018, there were no transfers into or out of level 3 fair value measurements. As at 31 March 2018, available-for-sale investments with a carrying amount of SR 19.2 million were transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 because these investments are now being actively traded in the market. To determine the fair value of such investments, management used a valuation technique in which all significant inputs were based on observable market data. There were no transfers from Level 1 to Level 2 during the period ended 30 September 2018. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
