IS FUTURES TRADING PERMISSIBLE IN ISLAM? ⚖️

Muslim traders — think twice before chasing fast profits! 🚨

Before hitting that 100x leverage, understand this 👇

❌ Reasons It's Considered Impermissible by Scholars:

1️⃣ **Gharar (Uncertainty):**

Selling something you don’t actually own? That’s like rolling dice. 🎲

2️⃣ **Riba (Interest):**

Trading with borrowed money often includes hidden interest — strictly prohibited. ⚠️

3️⃣ **Maisir (Gambling):**

Speculating purely on price swings? That crosses into gambling territory. 🎰

4️⃣ **Deferred Settlement:**

Islamic finance requires immediate exchange — not “maybe later” contracts.

✅ When It Might Be Allowed:

Only under very specific conditions:

🔹 The underlying asset is tangible and lawful

🔹 No interest-bearing leverage involved

🔹 You fully own the asset being traded

🔹 The goal is to manage risk, not chase high-risk gains

(This is more like a **Salam** contract, not your average futures deal.)

📚 Scholarly Opinions:

* **AAOIFI:** ❌ Not permissible

* **Darul Uloom Deoband:** ❌ Not allowed

* **Some contemporary scholars:** ✅ Permissible with strict conditions

⚠️ A HARD TRUTH:

Most futures platforms feel more like digital casinos than real investments.

Protect your faith. Don’t let greed cost you your Hereafter. 🩸

💎 Choose ethical wealth-building paths:

✔️ Shariah-compliant stocks

✔️ Islamic mutual funds

✔️ Sukuk (Shariah-compliant bonds)

✔️ Tangible assets like gold or property

👇 Ask yourself: Is the hype really worth risking your Afterlife?
