Is Forex Haram? Muslim Medical Student Making Millions Trading Reveals the Truth EP 17

Is Forex trading halal or haram? In this episode of Islamically Correct, host Maya Ali sits down with Abdiaziz Hassan — Alliance High School alumni, medical student on his way to becoming a neurosurgeon, AND a profitable forex trader — to unpack his raw money story. Abdiaziz shares how he went from a privileged upbringing in Nairobi to managing $5,000 of someone else's money with zero prior experience, turning it into $10,000 — and why he nearly walked away from it all. He also makes a bold claim that will divide the internet: "Everything in this world is gambling."
