Is Margin-Free Forex Trading Halal?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Is Forex Trading without margin halaal? I mean, if I invest $500 and I trade from this $500 and don’t take any loan, will it be permissible? How can I get physical possession on an online platform?

Bismillaah

A: If the money is not coming into your account where you will be able to control it and spend it as you want then it will not be permissible.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
