A prominent Pakistani Islamic cleric has issued a fatwa declaring cryptocurrency trading haram under Sharia law. Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani, whose AAOIFI rulings guide over 200 Islamic financial institutions globally, said cryptocurrencies do not qualify as wealth or property under Islamic law.

Una voce autorevole del mondo islamico ritiene che le criptovalute non siano utilizzabili per i pagamenti in quanto non possono essere considerate come un bene tangibile

“The central question the fatwa raises is whether a digital asset constitutes recognised wealth under Shariah. That is precisely the right question," says Bilal bin Saqib.
