Are shares among doubtful matters?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah keep you safe, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Do shares in our present time fall under the doubtful matters mentioned in the hadith of al-Nu'man?

Answer:
Without a doubt, the least of their states is that they are among the doubtful matters, even though it appears that they are not among the doubtful matters; because they contain riba (usury or interest), they contain gharar (excessive uncertainty in a contract), they contain ignorance, and they contain qimar (gambling).
