SHARI’AH ISSUES IN SINGLE-STOCK FUTURES CONTRACTS AND THEIR REGULATORY RESOLUTIONS: LESSONS FROM THE MALAYSIAN MODEL
Abstract
This article aims to identify the Sharia-related issues associated with single-stock futures contracts and to explain how the Malaysian experience has addressed these issues within the framework of Islamic finance. Conventional futures contracts are among the most widely traded financial instruments in global markets; however, they are based on deferred obligations, rely on price differentials, and are often cash-settled without actual ownership of the underlying assets. Such features have raised several Sharia concerns, the most prominent of which are: excessive gharar resulting from the absence of ownership and possession at the time of contracting; maysir, as profits may depend on pure speculation; selling what one does not own; the disconnection of the contract from the underlying asset in some conventional structures; and the elevated level of risk linked to leverage and margin calls. The Malaysian experience has presented a practical model that effectively addresses these concerns through restructuring futures contracts in accordance with the Sharia standards adopted by the Sharia Advisory Council. The most important mechanisms include ensuring the presence of a real underlying stock, imposing higher margin requirements to control risk, employing actual (or functionally equivalent) settlement through the clearinghouse to safeguard rights, applying daily price limits to reduce excessive volatility, restricting speculative use of the contracts, and emphasizing hedging and risk management within permissible Sharia boundaries. The study concludes that the Malaysian model offers a valuable example that can be utilized in developing Sharia-compliant futures contracts in financial markets such as the Saudi Stock Exchange (Tadawul).

Abstract
هدف المقال بيان الإشكالات الشرعية المتعلة بالعقود المستقبلية للأسهم المفردة، وبيان كيف عالجت التجربة الماليزية تلك الإشكالات وفق إطار التمويل الإسلامي. فالعقود المستقبلية التقليدية تعتبر من أكثر الأدوات المالية تداولاً في الأسواق العالمية، إلا إنها تحوي العديد من المحاذير الشرعية، منها: إنها تعتمد على الالتزامات المؤجلة، وتعتمد فروقات الأسعار، وتتم التسوية النقدية بدون تملك فعلي للأصول؛ مما اثار العديد من الإشكالات الشرعية. لعل من أبرزها؛ الغَرَر الفاحش الناتج عن عدم تحقق الملكية والقبض عند التعاقد، والمَيْسِر باعتماد الربح على مخاطرة صرفة، وبيع ما لا يملك، وانفصال العقد عن الأصل في بعض صيغها التقليدية، وارتفاع مستوى المخاطرة جرّاء الرفع المالي والنداء الهامشي. لقد قدّمت التجربة الماليزية، نموذجاً فعلياً عالج تلك الإشكالات، عبر إعادة هيكلة العقود المستقبلية، بما ينسجم مع ضوابط الشرع التي يعتمدها مجلس الاستشارات الشرعية. كانت أهم آليات المعالجة: وجود أصل حقيقي للأسهم محل العقد، متطلبات هامش أعلى لضبط المخاطر، استخدام التسوية الفعلية من خلال غرفة المقاصة لحفظ الحقوق. اعتماد حدود سعرية يومية للحد من تقلبات الأسعار، ومنع توظيف العقود للمضاربات، التأكيد على التحوط وإدارة المخاطر بشكل شرعي. وبينت الدراسة أن التجربة الماليزية قدّمت نموذجاً فذاً يمكن الإفادة منه في تطوير عقود مستقبلية متوافقة مع أحكام الشريعة، في أسواق المال، مثل سوق "تداول" السعودي.

Author Guidelines
All manuscripts should be submitted as "Word doc(x)" according to the “IJASOS PAPER TEMPLATE”
Papers are subject to a peer review process, using an international panel of researchers who are experts in relevant fields. Referees are asked to judge the quality of research and also the relevance and accessibility of a paper for an international audience. The journal uses a single blind review process, meaning any reviewers can establish the author(s) of a manuscript. Authors must propose two reviewers for their manuscripts. These reviewers should be international in scope and should have Ph.D.
The Journal IJASOS publishes the articles of the authors who join OCERINT conferences free of charge. Those articles will be published in the journal if they pass the review process and get two positive referee reports. There is a publication fee for the articles of the other authors which is USD 100 per manuscript. The articles which are charged the fee are also faced with the review process and have to get 2 positive referee reports from two different referees. The publication fee should be paid after getting two positive review reports.

OPEN ACCESS POLICY
This journal provides immediate open access to its content. We abide by the Budapest Open Access Initiative definition of Open Access:“By “open access” to [peer-reviewed research literature], we mean its free availability on the public internet, permitting any users to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles, crawl them for indexing, pass them as data to software, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without financial, legal, or technical barriers other than those inseparable from gaining access to the internet itself. The only constraint on reproduction and distribution, and the only role for copyright in this domain, should be to give authors control over the integrity of their work and the right to be properly acknowledged and cited.”
Researchers engage in discovery for the public good, yet because of cost barriers or use restrictions imposed by other publishers, research results are not available to the full community of potential users. It is our mission to support a greater global exchange of knowledge by making the research published in this journal open to the public and reusable under the terms of a Creative Commons CC-BY license.
Furthermore, we encourage authors to post their pre-publication manuscripts in institutional repositories or on their Web sites prior to and during the submission process and to post the Publisher’s final formatted PDF version after publication. These practices benefit authors with productive exchanges as well as earlier and greater citation of published work.
POLICY OF SCREENING FOR PLAGIARISM
Papers submitted to IJASOS Journal will be screened for plagiarism using the Turnitin plagiarism detection tool. Apart from that, we check with Copyscape for plagiarism. IJASOS Journal will immediately reject papers leading to plagiarism or self-plagiarism.
"Plagiarism is the use of others' published and unpublished ideas or words (or other intellectual property) without attribution or permission, and presenting them as new and original rather than derived from an existing source. The intent and effect of plagiarism are to mislead the reader as to the contributions of the plagiarizer. This applies whether the ideas or words are taken from abstracts, research grant applications, Institutional Review Board applications, or unpublished or published manuscripts in any publication format. Plagiarism is scientific misconduct and should be addressed as such.
Self-plagiarism refers to the practice of an author using portions of their previous writings on the same topic in another of their publications, without specifically citing it formally in quotes. This practice is widespread and sometimes unintentional, as there are only so many ways to say the same thing on many occasions, particularly when writing the methods section of an article. Although this usually violates the copyright that has been assigned to the publisher, there is no consensus as to whether this is a form of scientific misconduct, or how many of one's own words one can sue before it is truly "plagiarism." Probably for this reason self-plagiarism is not regarded in the same light as plagiarism of ideas and words of other individuals. If journals have developed a policy on this matter, it should be clearly stated for authors."
Direct plagiarism is the plagiarism of the text. Mosaic plagiarism is the borrowing of ideas and opinions from an original source and a few verbatim words or phrases without crediting the author.
Authors can adhere to the following steps to report plagiarism:
1.Inform the editor of the journal where a plagiarized article is published.
2.Send original and plagiarized articles with plagiarized parts highlighted.
3.If evidence of plagiarism is convincing, the editor should arrange for a disciplinary meeting.
4.Editor of the journal where the plagiarized article should communicate with the editor of the journal containing the original article to rectify the matter.
5.The plagiarist should be asked to provide an explanation.
6.In case of non-response in the stipulated time or an unsatisfactory explanation, the article should be permanently retracted.
7. Authors should be blacklisted and debarred for submitted an article to a particular journal for at least 5 years.
8.The concerned head of the institution has to be notified.
