Abstract
E-commerce is a new form of transaction that has become widespread and has a significant impact on people’s lives. Therefore, it is important to understand its position within Islamic law and its objectives. This paper aims to examine e-commerce and its relationship with the goal of wealth preservation through three sections: first, defining the relevant terms; second, examining how e-commerce serves as a means to preserve wealth in its entirety, both in existence and non-existence; and finally, discussing its ruling as a medium to achieve the goals of the wise legislator. The paper concludes with a summary of findings and recommendations.
