The question as to whether Forex trading is permissible according to Islamic law is a difficult question to conclusively answer. Although Islamic authorities certainly agree that currency exchange under certain conditions is halal (i.e., permissible according to Islamic law), there is some dispute regarding under exactly what conditions. Let’s examine the issues one by one after looking at the saying on the subject by the Prophet Mohammed (peace be upon him):
“Gold for gold, silver for silver, wheat for wheat, barley for barley, dates for dates, salt for salt, like for like, same for same, hand to hand. If the types are different then sell however you like, so long as it is hand to hand.”
Is there such a thing as halal Forex trading? Is Forex halal or haram
