Buying Shares in a Company in the Land of War
Does a company in the land of war take the ruling of war in transactions if there are Muslims who bought shares in it but the majority is still owned by the people of the land of war? Also, what about a company that is mostly owned by the people of the dhimma and a few Muslims, does it take the ruling of the dhimmi in transactions?
Answer
I say, and with God's guidance: Companies that engage in prohibited activities and enter into usury contracts should not be invested in by Muslims, whether in Muslim countries or non-Muslim countries. And God knows best.
