Investment In Commodity And Currency Funds
Why are Muslims not investing in commodity and currency funds despite their increasing popularity?
If by commodity and currency funds what is meant is what is typically available in the conventional market, the reason is that most of these funds are based on futures contracts which are not permissible to buy and sell. It is important to note, however, that Muslims may, of course, buy and sell commodities and may trade in currencies provided the rules for these are followed.
