What is the ruling on an investment that yields a fluctuating daily return, with profits and capital received after 30 days, along with the repayment of the principal and interest upon maturity?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
For investment to be permissible, three conditions must be met:
1. The funds must be invested in permissible activities, not in usury (riba), gambling, or similar things. 2. There must be no guarantee of the principal capital; otherwise, the contract becomes a loan. 3. Each party's share must be defined as a common percentage of the profit (e.g., 6% or 10% of the profits), not of the capital. The contract is invalid if the profit is unknown.
