Editorial Policy & Research Standards

Islamic-Forex is dedicated to providing clear, educational information regarding retail trading mechanics, swap-free account terms, and Islamic financial principles. Our documented editorial standards ensure that prospective content remains focused on published documentation rather than promotional claims.

1. Educational Purpose & Scope

All content published on Islamic-Forex is prepared exclusively for educational and informational purposes. The retail financial markets involve complex contract mechanics, counterparty risks, and high volatility. Our role is to explain these mechanics based on available published terms to assist readers in their personal evaluations.

We publish descriptive guides, broker specification breakdowns, fee summaries, and risk analyses. We do not provide personalized investment advice, trading signals, portfolio management services, or financial product recommendations.

2. Research & Sourcing Standards

Editorial research cross-checks information against available published sources, including:

• Published Broker Documentation: Client agreements, product disclosure statements (PDS), Islamic account terms, and published fee schedules.
• Financial Regulatory Registers: Official public registers of recognized statutory regulatory authorities (e.g., FCA, ASIC, CySEC, DFSA, CMA).
• Islamic Jurisprudence Literature: Published academic research, classical Sharia reference texts, and public guidance from Islamic financial standards bodies (such as AAOIFI).
• Trading Platform Documentation: Technical manuals and documentation provided by platform software vendors (e.g., MetaQuotes, Spotware).

We distinguish between documented factual data (such as a broker's stated overnight fee terms) and editorial commentary (such as descriptive notes regarding account suitability).

3. Editorial Separation & Commercial Disclosures

Islamic-Forex maintains an editorial separation policy regarding commercial relationships:

• Commercial Separation: While the website may receive affiliate compensation from select partners, commercial agreements do not dictate editorial ratings or the inclusion of factual risk disclosures.
• High-Risk Product Isolation: Commercial links and rating endorsements are disabled on high-risk, speculative categories such as binary options.
• Clear Disclosures: Commercial referral links carry standardized rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow sponsored" attributes.

For more details, please review our Affiliate Disclosure.

4. Religious Review & Non-Fatwa Boundary

We examine Islamic finance concepts—such as the prohibition of usury (Riba), excessive uncertainty (Gharar), and gambling (Maysir)—to explain how swap-free accounts operate under Islamic jurisprudence concepts.

5. Prohibited Claims & Editorial Boundaries

Islamic-Forex enforces the following boundaries across published content:

• No Profit or Safety Guarantees: We never guarantee trading profits, capital safety, or universal Sharia compliance.
• No Unsupported Testing Claims: We do not claim live-account execution testing or automated telemetry where only documentary review was conducted.
• No Fabricated Credentials: The site editor is represented as an educational researcher without claiming unverified regulatory licenses, certifications, or institutional research department backing.

6. Updates & Corrections

Financial market conditions and broker specifications change over time. Content is reviewed and updated based on published documentation updates. When factual errors are identified, we correct them in accordance with our Corrections Policy.
