Forex trading
Question
Is forex trading permissible?
Answer
Online forex trading where delivery and possession of the currencies do not take place is not permissible. For the validity of any sale, ownership and possession of the commodity is required.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
