Technological advancements have driven the use of crypto assets as dowries, sparking debates regarding their legitimacy and mechanisms. This research aims to analyze these issues using a normative approach with contemporary ijtihad methods (intiqa’i and insya’i) and a statute approach. The findings reveal that, in general, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) prohibits the use of cryptocurrency as a medium of exchange or commodity, except when it fulfills the requirements of sil’ah.
