๐ Crypto & Shariah โ Part 3: Is Staking or Earning Profit Considered Riba?
By: Shaker Haqqani
> ๐ค Question: Is staking or earning crypto profit considered Riba (interest)?
โ
Answer (Islamic Perspective):
It depends on how the profit is generated.
๐น Halal if:
โข It follows Mudarabah (profit-sharing) or Ijarah (rental/service model)
โข Your capital is at risk
โข No guaranteed profit is promised
โ Haram (Riba) if:
โข Itโs a loan (Qard) with interest
โข You get fixed, risk-free returns on capital
โข Your capital is guaranteed plus you earn money โ this becomes Riba
๐ง Shariah rule:
> โEvery loan that draws a benefit is Riba.โ (ุญุฏูุซ ูุจูู)
๐ก In Islamic finance, profit is only allowed when risk is shared.
