| Gharar |
"(Lit. Risk, Hazard,
Uncertainty) Technically it signifies the contract or transaction in
which the object of contract or the commodity is not determined for
both or either contracting party and thus the contract involves an
element of risk and uncertainty. Examples are the sale of fish in
the water which has not been caught or of a bird in the air or of a
foetus in the womb (hable-al-habla). The sale of milk in the udder
is also termed ""gharar"". It is also applicable in cases where the
gain of one partner in a business is guaranteed but that of the
other remains uncertain. All transactions involving gharar are
unlawful in Islam." |
