‘investing, interest, and returns’

| 0 comments

Q: Assalamulaikum Imam I have a concern regarding finance. What specifically are the rules regarding investing, interest, and returns on investments? Does It depend on the amount of profit being received such as taking too much/little profit? (email)

A: Walaikumsalam

Your question is enormously vague.

  • Invest in halal products. Best investment in light of modern times would be for you to get a small business on the side (if you do not already have your own business.) Most major businesses invest and deal in alcohol, interest, casinos, etc. As a recommendation, stay away from companies that do not represent your true religious values.
  • Interest money should be given to the poor without intention of reward.
  • So long as business transactions are halal, you can accept as much profit as possible.

Allah Certainly Knows Best.
