Islamic Finance - ​Products or services that are against the law
One more requirement that must be met for Islamic finance to be considered legitimate is that it cannot be used to facilitate the sale of products or services that are illegal. These forbidden goods and services include, among other things, foods that are not considered halal, such as pork, animals that have not been slaughtered or animals that have not been slaughtered in accordance with Islamic principles, alcoholic beverages, entertainment and pornography, tobacco-related products, and firearms. Non-participation is not only restricted to purchasing or selling but also encompasses all production and distribution chains, such as the packaging, transportation, warehousing, and marketing of these illegal goods and services. Non-participation is not limited to buying or selling but also includes all of these activities.
