This study examines the practice of buying and selling goat sperm among breeders in Baosan Kidul Village, Ngrayun, Ponorogo. The transaction, which has become a local custom, involves natural insemination services with payments ranging from IDR 50,000 to 300,000 depending on the male goat used. Opinions differ: some justify it based on ‘urf (customary practice), while others raise concerns about gharar (uncertainty). Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings show that the payment is not for the sperm itself but as compensation for insemination services. From the perspective of Islamic law and ‘urf, this practice is permissible, as it causes no harm and aligns with local traditions and Islamic ethical principles
