The third question of Fatwa No. ( 6950 )
Q3: There is no doubt that the wise Muslim in this world is concerned with obeying Allah and His pleasure, Exalted is He, following His commands and avoiding His prohibitions. Since the trade in gold is fraught with the dangers mentioned, leading to the commission of one of the major, ruinous sins; how can a person be secure in his self and the soundness of his conduct by distancing himself from all sin in practicing this profession? We ask Allah to inspire us all to what He loves and is pleased with.
A3: Strive with your utmost effort to abandon what Allah has forbidden, and to seek out what Allah has made lawful in sales and other matters. In what He has made lawful, there is ample room and ease to avoid committing what He has forbidden, and sufficiency to avoid falling into what angers Him.
