Summary
The Sarawak State Fatwa Council ruled that investing in ASN and ASB is permissible, and the dividends or bonuses earned are halal. ASB is described as a continuation of ASN with the same manner of implementation. However, it is not permissible to take an interest-bearing loan in order to buy ASB or ASN units.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Bermuamalah dengan skim Amanah Saham Nasional (ASN) adalah harus dan hasil yang diperoleh daripadanya (dividen atau bonus) adalah halal.
