Fiqh of Transactions: Four Principles Before You Trade
Artikel oleh KH. Abdul Ghani · 8 Juli 2026
Four principles that keep a transaction halal: mutual consent, clarity, fairness, and freedom from riba.
Before diving into contract details, understand the four great principles of muamalah:
1. Mutual consent — no coercion and no deception.
2. Clarity (avoiding gharar) — the item, price, and delivery are all known.
3. Fairness — neither wronging nor being wronged.
4. Freedom from riba — profit comes from work and risk, not from interest.
Almost every modern trading question can be weighed against these four.
