📰 Crypto czar asks Jamia Darul Uloom to distinguish between speculative crypto, asset-backed tokens

“The central question the fatwa raises is whether a digital asset constitutes recognised wealth under Shariah. That is precisely the right question," says Bilal bin Saqib.

➤ Pakistan's crypto regulator is seeking clarification from Jamia Darul Uloom on distinguishing between speculative cryptocurrencies and asset-backed digital tokens under Islamic law.
➤ A recent fatwa deeming crypto purchases impermissible has raised concerns about Pakistan's embrace of digital assets, despite the regulator's efforts to categorize them individually.
➤ The PVARA aims to lead in Shariah-compliant digital finance by working with scholars to develop a licensing framework for stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets.
