Abstract EN

Cryptocurrencies are widespread global economic matter, which has repercussions at the economic and individual level, as it affects the monetary policies of the state in terms of the money supply due to the lack of control of the state in its issuance and also affects the financial policy to facilitate the process of tax evasion, as well as on the payments and credit system in the absence of financial intermediation In dealing with it, however, it was distinguished at the same time by the wide acceptance it enjoys from the confidence of the dealers for its smooth handling, and to benefit from it in all transactions easily and easily through the spread trading platforms.

Therefore, the Islamic scholars differed in the rule on dealing with it, between those who said that it is permissible to deal with it and that it remains on the basis of the permissibility and that it performs the functions of money, and between those who say that this is prohibited because it is not issued by the competent authorities and it includes ambiguity and ignorance, and between another one who is suspended in the ruling because all the pictures related to him are not clear.

He did not say that it is permissible or inviolable.

The research concluded the Shari’ah ruling regarding the dealing with crypto currencies in their current form is withheld while considering them a standalone type of currency, therefore the legal provisions related to ordinary non-cryptocurrencies are applicable for dealing per se because of the potential ability to be price of things de facto.
