❓$FUTURE TRADING IN ISLAM – HALAL OR HARAM?
🕋 A Detailed Explanation with Proofs
😞 "Family pressure, constant guilt, endless confusion..."
Let’s finally clear the air — in the light of authentic Islamic teachings. 🌙
🔴 Why Most Scholars Call Futures Haram
1️⃣ Gharar – Extreme uncertainty
Selling what you don’t own is prohibited.
📖 “Don’t sell what you don’t possess.” – (Tirmidhi)
2️⃣ Riba – Interest-based system
Margin & leverage trading involve interest — which is strictly forbidden in Islam.
3️⃣ Maisir – Resemblance to gambling
Speculative price betting without owning or using the asset.
4️⃣ Delayed Settlement
Islam requires either immediate payment or delivery. Futures violate both.
✅ When Some Scholars Consider It Halal
Only under strict Shariah-compliant conditions:
✔️ Structured like Salam contracts
✔️ Physical halal asset (e.g., wheat, oil)
✔️ Seller owns the asset or legal rights
✔️ No leverage, no interest
✔️ Purely for hedging, not speculation
