Brothers and sisters,
somebody asked me a question today
about trading in shares on the stock market.
So let me answer the question, and then
after that, I will tell you the basis
for it.
And the second question was 2 question, 1
trading in shares, and second question was Bitcoin.
Our Olamas
have said
that bitcoin trading is not providable,
not allowed because it has no material
existence.
It's like,
some form of gambling,
and therefore, it is not possible.
Trading in the share market is permissible
for shares of companies
which are in businesses which are halal.
So for example, technology companies, infrastructure companies, transportation
companies,
hospitals,
and so on and so on. Whatever. So
it's not I'm not giving you a total
list but
companies which
are engaged in business, which is halal,
trading in the shares of those companies is
permissible.
Trading in the shares of companies which are
not halal,
which is, for example, obviously liquor and so
on,
banks,
mortgage companies,
ammunition companies, amendments companies,
any gambling companies,
all of that. Right? MGM, for example, share.
So all this is haram.
Can't hear you.
Haram. Haram. I mean, just you can't. I
mean, insurance is because insurance is also if
if there is interest involved in it, it's
not a life insurance is not possible. Health
insurance,
automobile, so on is is provisable, so
different. So the point being that
trading in companies
where the where the business is halal is
not provisable.
It is our responsibility
to find out before you buy a share
whether it is
halal or not.
Somebody else asked me a question. They said,
what about a company
where the business itself may be halal, for
example, a technology company,
but the way they do business
is through
bank loans, for example.
So is it permissible to take a share
in that company?
Now my answer to that is, of course,
I'm not a. I don't give for that,
but my answer to that is
whatever you have a doubt in,
don't touch it.
Very simple.
And I'm basing this on 2 fundamental principles
of our gain. The first fundamental principle, which
is the principle of our aqeedah, of our
creed,
is that Allah
is the one who has written what is
for us
and this will not increase or decrease because
of anything we do.
What Allah has written is what you will
get whether you like it, you don't like
it, you want it, you don't want it
makes no difference. What Allah has written is
what you will get.
Right?
What is the evidence of the proof of
that? Proof of that is that the questions
of the
day of judgment,
the question on risk, the question on
sustenance,
Allah will not ask how much did you
make, how much did you earn. There's no
question on the quantity.
The question is, where did you earn from?
Where did you spend?
Right? Question is on the methodology.
Did you is your method of
earning? Where you spend, is
it? Allah will not ask you how much
did you
make. Did you make a $1,000,000? Did you
make 10,000,000? You you could have made more,
you made less. No. That's not a question.
What has been written has been written. And
Allah
said,
say my rub is the one who decides
how much he will give you more or
less,
and most people do not know. So, therefore,
the question is on
the source and on the expenditure.
2nd fundamental principle in Islam is leave that
which is doubtful for that
which has no doubt.
And this is the Sahih Hadith narrated by
Hazar ibn Ali radiAllahu anhu from Rasool Allah
Hisahu Alaihi Salam where he said, my grandfather
said,
leave that which
is doubtful or that in which there is
no doubt.
Simple. So if you are getting this doubt
about a particular business
to say, is it halal or not halal?
Then respect that doubt because this doubt indicates
that
you have in your
heart, and therefore,
respect that. Don't touch it. Makes no difference
because what you are supposed to get, Allah
will give you.
If I don't take it from this place,
Allah will give you give me from some
other place.
I don't lose anything. What I am safeguarding
myself from is a question
about the source of my income.
Yes. All the chefs go through vets.
It is not because they Sure. No. Yeah.
I to Yeah.
I I don't want to go into the
details. I'm not saying the basic principle. Right?
Yeah. Okay.
3rd thing is
the hadith of.
Now one of the things about him is
that he had narrated very few hadith. The
UN asked him. They said, how is it
that, you know, Abu, for example,
was with the for 3 years from to
the to to the end. He narrated so
many hadiths. You were with him from day
1.
How did you not narrate more hadiths? And
he he was afraid. He said, I don't
want to say anything from the prophet
which if it is wrong then Allah will
hope it is possible.
He had a book in which he had
noted
a hadith, which he asked
to destroy when he died.
But one of the hadith which he has
narrated
and the story behind it is very interesting.
Returned home from somewhere one day. He was
tired. He was thirsty.
His servant was there. He asked him, is
there anything to eat? The man gave him
a bowl of milk.
So drank the milk.
The servant said,
every time I give you something to eat
or drink, you ask me where did you
get this from? What is the source?
Today, you did not ask
me.
So I mean, you know, I ask you
every time, so I expect you to be
careful what what was his milk?
The man said this milk
was payment to me
for a
job that I did as a fortune teller
before I became Muslim.
So he said I did this job as
a fortune teller for some people before I
became Muslim. They did not pay me at
that time. After that, I became
Muslim. Now today, I was going past there.
They gave me this bowl of milk as
a payment for that job.
I brought it
put his finger into his throat and he's
vomited and vomited and vomited until he brought
out blood. So people gathered, they grabbed it.
They said, what are you doing? You'll kill
yourself.
He said,
by the by the one in whose hand
is my soul,
I have heard from my friend. Who's his
friend?
He said, I have heard from my friend
that if a morsel,
one piece, if a morsel of haram goes
into the body and is digested,
then the fire of
is
on this body.
K?
Now think about
this. Everyone knows enough for this.
A gift of something which is halal
from a Muslim.
Is it halal for you to consume it
or not?
Yes or no?
Yes. Of course. Right? I don't have to
ask you. I mean, if you are giving
me something to my mother, is is this
halal? Is it this this? I don't have
to ask. Hamdi, you're a Muslim? You're giving
me? I get it. I have to check.
Are you giving me something if you give
me some beer, I will not. But if
you give me milk, if you give me
if you call me and give me, you
know, chicken, for example,
I will eat I will eat chicken in
your house. I will not ask the question.
In a restaurant, I will ask. Is it
not the in your house, I I honor
you as my brother. Right? Now supposing, for
example, you stole the chicken from him.
Right?
You cooked the chicken for me. Now that
is a stolen chicken. So stolen chicken halal
for you or no halal? No halal. No
halal. But for me, halal. Because I am
taking it from you as a gift, but
you stole it. So for you, it.
Right? So now this man
is a Muslim.
He is giving
a gift of this milk. Says
that drank this milk. What is the fault?
There's no fault.
Why does he do this?
This is the level of taqwa.
Right? I'm not telling you if you do
it, you have to no. But this is
the level of this is the level of
of
being careful
with regard to halal and haram because the
basic fundamental principle is if you or I,
if we earn haram
or if we eat haram,
then our is not accepted. Our
is not accepted.
We have the Hadith of Islam. He said
a man comes, and he raises his hand
to the heavens and he says,
Now mister Salam says, how will Allah
hear and listen to his dua
when his clothing is haram, his food is
haram, his actions are haram.
What does it mean in clothing haram? Means
he's earning his haram.
From his earning, he's buying the clothing. He's
closing.
Nabi Shahram says Allah will not accept it.
Allah will not accept it. This is why
it is so important
to be very careful what are you earning.
Every
time I I go in here, I tell
you I tell you my brother,
I don't like to go in,
but we have to go. This is our
this is our job, and this is,
for the and he must do it even
if it's difficult. But you go to Muslim
shops.
They are selling lottery.
They are selling alcohol.
They are selling all kinds of harab in
Muslim shops owned by Muslim. The one selling
it is a Muslim.
How do you how do you how do
you,
justify that to your conscience? Tell me.
So I mean, you you no fear of
Allah. No fear of the. No fear that
one day you are going to die. You
will go into your grave, and then you
have to answer for all of this stuff.
What is this?
And you come to the mother. You pray
5 times a day, you got a beard
big beard like this and so on so
on toping the on the on the head.
You're giving donation to the budget. Believe me,
none of that matters.
If your earning is haram,
charity not accepted by Allah's
not accept by Allah's
not accept by Allah.
Do I not accept by Allah. You can
give as much charity as you want. Nothing
nothing will happen.
It will not be counted.
Please, my brothers and sisters, please
take care of your earnings.
Be very very careful of your earnings. Allah
is our
Allah give me my power.
Why
must I do a haram thing
to feed this love
who who is feeding and he's taking care
of the entire kind of the entire universe,
all that we know and all that we
don't know, he cannot give you a piece
of bread?
What is this?
Who are you making?
Why are we worshiping Allah? If if this
is Allah,
that he cannot even give you a piece
of bread without you going to haram, Why
are you making? For what?
This is all the game of Shaitan. Shaitan
has put it into our heads.
This is okay. That is okay. This is
America.
There is only one rub.
Allah
He's the rub of America. He's the love
of Sudan. He's the love of Pakistan. He's
the love of India. He is the love
of this entire universe.
There's no there's no different rub for America.
There's no different Sharia for America. There's no
different rule for America.
Please, guard
your what goes into your mouth and what
goes into your pocket.
Both. Earning halal,
eating halal.
Don't earn halal.
Do not eat halal. No matter what.
Then inshallah,
you will see in your own life, you
will raise your hand and you will see
your dua being accepted. Wallahi, I
I swear with Allah in the name of
Allah, sitting here in the masjid,
you will see your dua being accepted. You
raise your hand and you can say this
will happen because I said so. My rabbi
asking you
give me.
But if the earning is haram, if the
food is haram,
We ask Allah
to enable
us to earn halal, to eat halal,
to have his in our hearts, to remember
our akhira always
that one day we will meet him
We ask Allah to make our hisaab
easy.
