Ruling On Trading Cryptocurrencies by Kingofdiamond: 8:37am On Apr 09, 2021
Praise be to Allah.

Dealing in currencies is permissible so long as the exchange takes place in the same sitting as the contract is made. It is permissible to sell euros for dollars so long as the exchange takes place in the same sitting as the contract is made. But when the deal is concerning the same type of currency, such as selling one dollar for two dollars, that is not permissible because it is a type of riba. In that case they should be of equal amounts and the exchange must take place in the same sitting as the contract if the exchange is concerning one type of currency. The evidence for that is the report narrated by ‘Ubaadah ibn al-Saamit (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Gold for gold, silver for silver, wheat for wheat, barley for barley, dates for dates, salt for salt, like for like, same for same, hand to hand. If the types are different then sell however you like, so long as it is hand to hand.”

It says in Majmoo’ Fataawa Ibn Baaz (19/171-174):

Dealing in currency, buying and selling, is permissible, but that is subject to the condition that the exchange be hand-to-hand if the currencies are different. If a person sells Libyan currency for American or Egyptian or whatever currency hand to hand, there is nothing wrong with that, such as if he buys dollars for Libyan currency hand to hand, exchanging it in one sitting, or he buys Egyptian or English currency etc for the Libyan or whatever currency hand to hand, there is nothing wrong with that. But if there is a delay, then it is not permissible, and if the exchange is not done in the same sitting, it is not permissible, because in that case it is regarded as a kind of riba-based transaction. So the exchange must take place in the same sitting, hand to hand, if the currencies are different. But if they are of the same kind, two conditions must be met: they should be of equal amounts and the exchange should take place in the same sitting, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Gold for gold, silver for silver…”

The ruling on currency is as mentioned above; if they are different then it is permissible for the amounts exchanged to be different, so long as the exchange takes place in the same sitting. If they are of the same kind, such as dollars for dollars, or dinars for dinars, then the exchange must take place in the same sitting and they should be of the same amount. And Allaah is the source of strength. End quote.

In a case whereby one take old naira note to the bank to change it to mint naira note, the bank usually charge for that.

Some beggars exchange lower naira note for higher ones and they add their changes .
With what I read above, it shows this transactions are not permissible in Islam except there are no additional charges.

May Allah forgive our sins and make us inhabitant of His paradise.

Yes there's a ruling on how to breathe as is the case with everything else. There's a good way to sit down and a way that harms your back. There's a good way to eat and a way to make yourself obese and sick. There's a good way to do business and a way to swindle each other and make life difficult for others. This is common sense, without the input of any religion.
It just so happens that Islam tries to cater to the community's welfare in all aspects

Not sure why thinking about how to do something the right way makes people unserious but it's okay to say things that you feel like saying, I guess. If anything, that's kind of the definition of seriousness.

Muhammad didn't know about BNB but neither did Hippocrates know about modern medicine yet we still have a hippocratic oath and we still apply some of the old principles.

The title of the post is misleading. There is no part that explicitly give fatwa on Cryptocurrency. I've read this on Islamqa before; it was an answer to a question asked on forex trading, not Cryptocurrency.

Do you now know the part that got him confused tbh lol
