It is permissible to invest in the energy and electricity sector, provided that the company's shares are pure (halal) and do not involve usury (riba). There is no objection to purchasing company shares and benefiting from their returns. However, the share must not cease to be owned by its owner. If the company allows individuals to participate, it is permissible, provided that the company's capital is known and the profit share is known. There is no harm in setting a specific duration for the participation. However, seizing the participant's capital is null and void. As for Forex trading, it is not free from prohibitions.
