Platinum Rings, Honeymoons and Cruise ship holidays

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Tafseer Raheemi

Question

Salaam Hazrat, I have a few questions if you could help me please,

  1. Are men allowed to wear platinum rings?
  2. Are we allowed to go on honeymoons?
  3. Are we allowed to go on a cruise ship holidays?

Jazakallah Hazrat, your help is very much appreciated, and I humbly request that you remember me in your duas.

Answer

  1. No, only silver is permissible for men, and that, too, in the form of a ring, not a chain, bracelet, necklace or anything else.
  2. A honeymoon is in order to increase the love for one another when embarking on a new journey in life.  If there is no mushabahat with other cultures, it will be allowed.  However, exact copying of other people should be avoided.
  3. One hadith says,

    “Do not travel on the ocean except for Haj, Umrah or for the path of Allah.”

    Which means any unnecessary travelling on the sea should be avoided, therefore such cruises should be avoided.

Let’s say, I invest $1,000, the broker invests or lends $99,000 and together we buy the currency like euro worth $100,000. The broker will not charge any interest on the money that he invested or lend, because it will be a Shariah compliant account.     – If the rate of the euro goes up and I decide to sell the euro. The broker will take a small share of the profit and rest is given to me     – If the rate of the euro goes down below a certain margin which is determined by the amount I invest, my broker will close the trade and take his money back and I will lose the money I invested. Also, another place were interest may be involved is when the buying and selling is not done on the same day, then a rollover occurs which mean that either we have to pay interest or give interest on the currency you have bought, but the brokers is offering a swap free or interest free accounts for Muslims only, in which, even if you do not close the trade on the same day, they will not debit or credit any interest. I am interested in Spot trading not Future trading. Please let me know if this type of trading is Halal.
