Investing in unit trusts
Question
I would like to know whether it is permissible to invest in the stock market and also what is the ruling in investing in Shariah compliant Unit Trusts and the Absa Shariah ETF fund?
Answer
We have not researched all these, and it is better to refrain until one is totally clear.
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.
