Analysis of Halal and Haram in Investments in the Sharia Capital Market

Abstract

Many people are increasingly interested in investments as a financial strategy. Types of investments such as deposits, property, gold, foreign currency, and the capital market are gaining popularity. However, public views on investments in the Sharia capital market vary widely. Many assumptions circulate among the public regarding the halal or haram nature of these investments, often becoming a source of debate. Positive views usually come from individuals who have an in-depth understanding of the Sharia capital market, while negative views tend to arise from a lack of comprehensive understanding. The purpose of this article is to explain the halal aspects of investments, particularly in Sharia capital market instruments. Therefore, efforts are needed to enhance public understanding of investments in the Sharia capital market from all aspects, so that debates regarding the halal or haram nature of these investments can be avoided.
