巴基斯坦虚拟资产监管机构在与一位支持禁止使用加密货币购买的伊斯兰学者会面后,呼吁就数字资产的处理问题继续进行对话。 巴基斯坦虚拟资产监管局 (PVARA) 主席比拉尔·本·萨奇布 (Bilal bin Saqib) 会见著名学者穆夫蒂·塔基·乌斯马尼 (Mufti Taqi Usmani),后者支持反对使用加密货币进行购买的裁决,之后呼吁继续就伊斯兰法律下数字资产的处理问题进行对话。 萨奇布在周六的帖子中表示,讨论涵盖了区块链技术、数字资产、稳定币和代币化现实世界资产(RWA),以及保护巴基斯坦人免受欺诈、剥削和财务伤害的必要性。 萨奇布表示,不同类别的数字资产值得“仔细的技术评估和严格的伊斯兰教法检查,而不是通过单一的视角来看待。”
这次交流凸显了巴基斯坦推动建立受监管的加密货币市场与可能影响公众接受度的宗教反对之间的紧张关系。宗教观点在巴基斯坦可能具有重要影响力,在 2023 年人口普查中,约有 2.317 亿人(占总人口的 96.35%)被认定为穆斯林。 巴基斯坦的加密框架受到宗教审查 据巴基斯坦《黎明报》报道,乌斯马尼和其他五名学者周五签署了由著名伊斯兰神学院 Jamia Darul Uloom Karachi 发布的伊斯兰法律裁决。 据报道,该裁决称,不允许使用加密货币(包括 USDT 等稳定币)进行购买,因为根据伊斯兰法的解释,数字代币不符合公认的财产或财富的条件。 萨奇布没有直接质疑这一说法。相反,他呼吁学者、监管机构和行业参与者继续讨论数字资产类别之间的区别。 “我认为区块链、数字资产、稳定币和代币化的现实世界资产代表了广泛的技术和用例,”他说。 相关:PUSD 稳定币部署在 ADI 链上,瞄准 3T 美元的伊斯兰金融市场
此次讨论正值巴基斯坦放宽对获得许可的虚拟资产行业的限制之际。 4 月 15 日,巴基斯坦国家银行允许银行为 PVARA 许可的虚拟资产服务提供商(VASP)开设账户,结束了对受监管机构处理加密货币的八年限制。 在此之前,该国于 3 月份通过了《2026 年虚拟资产法案》,该法案将 PVARA 确立为负责虚拟资产活动许可和监督的法定机构。 杂志:比特币接近熊市后期:Jamie Coutts,Real Vision
Pakistan’s virtual-assets regulator called for continued dialogue on the treatment of digital assets after meeting an Islamic scholar who backed a ruling against purchases made with crypto.
Pakistan Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (PVARA) Chairman Bilal bin Saqib has called for continued dialogue on the treatment of digital assets under Islamic law after meeting prominent scholar Mufti Taqi Usmani, who backed a ruling against purchases made with crypto.
In a Saturday post, Saqib said the discussion covered blockchain technology, digital assets, stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), as well as the need to protect Pakistanis from fraud, exploitation and financial harm.
Saqib said the different categories of digital assets merit “careful technical assessment alongside rigorous Shariah examination, rather than being viewed through a single lens.”
The exchange highlights tension between Pakistan’s push to build a regulated crypto market and religious objections that could shape public acceptance. Religious views could carry significant weight in Pakistan, where about 231.7 million people, or 96.35% of the population, identified as Muslim in the 2023 census.
Pakistan’s crypto framework meets religious scrutiny
According to Pakistani newspaper Dawn, Usmani and five other scholars signed an Islamic legal ruling issued by Jamia Darul Uloom Karachi, a prominent Islamic seminary, on Friday.
The ruling reportedly said purchases made with crypto, including stablecoins such as USDT, were not permitted because digital tokens did not qualify as recognized property or wealth under their interpretation of Islamic law.
Saqib did not directly challenge the claim. Instead, he called for scholars, regulators and industry participants to continue discussing distinctions among digital-asset categories.
“I shared that blockchain, digital assets, stablecoins, and tokenized real-world assets represent a broad spectrum of technologies and use cases,” he said.

The discussion comes as Pakistan relaxes restrictions toward a licensed virtual-asset sector. On April 15, the State Bank of Pakistan allowed banks to open accounts for virtual asset service providers (VASPs) licensed by the PVARA, ending an eight-year restriction on regulated institutions dealing with crypto.
The move followed the passage of the country's Virtual Assets Act 2026 in March, which established PVARA as the statutory body responsible for licensing and oversight of virtual asset activities.
