Is SushiSwap (SUSHI) halal?

Permissible — with caveats

SushiSwap is a multi-chain AMM forked from Uniswap. SUSHI is the governance and reward token. Like Uniswap, the core product is spot swap infrastructure. SushiSwap also operates a separate lending product (Kashi) — that product fails our riba screening, but it is structurally separate from the SUSHI token's core AMM revenue.

Verdict

Our framework uses an AAOIFI-aligned methodology, with Saudi Permanent Committee for Scholarly Research and Ifta and leading Saudi Islamic banks guidance.

Gate-by-gate analysis

01

Riba (interest)

Pass

Spot SUSHI has no embedded interest. The Kashi lending product is separate; spot SUSHI captures AMM swap fees, not lending interest.

02

Gharar (uncertainty)

Pass

Asset specifications, supply schedule, and on-chain settlement are publicly verifiable. Spot ownership transfers cleanly with no embedded contingent payoffs.

03

Maysir (gambling)

Pass

Spot purchase is direct ownership of a defined asset, not a wager. Our bot never places leverage, futures, perpetuals, options, or margin trades — eliminating the maysir vector at execution.

04

Haram-sector exposure

Pass

Multi-chain DEX infrastructure. Kashi lending is a separate product line; subscribers should not engage with it.

05

Liquidity

Pass

SUSHI clears Moderate and Multi-X gates.

Final verdict

Per AAOIFI-aligned framework, spot SUSHI passes our gates with caveat to avoid Kashi.

Caveats and notes
