Advances in technology have made stock investment more accessible and attractive as an alternative for gaining profit and maintaining financial stability in the future. However, the growing practice of stock trading has raised debates among society regarding whether such activities contain elements of speculation prohibited in Islam. Therefore, this study was conducted to analyze the differences between speculation and investment practices in stock trading based on the perspective of DSN-MUI fatwas.
