Questions and answers

Straight answers, no hype.

What traders in Pakistan ask us most about the law, Shariah, payments and safety.

Pakistan and the law

Is crypto legal in Pakistan?

As of September 2026, Pakistan regulates crypto service providers through the Pakistan Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (PVARA), set up under the Virtual Assets Act passed in March 2026. The State Bank now lets banks open accounts for PVARA-licensed providers. Rules are changing quickly, so use licensed services and check pvara.gov.pk. This is general information, not legal advice.

Which exchange should I use?

Barqish does not recommend or earn from any exchange. Choose one that is licensed or registered where you live, lets you withdraw to your own wallet, and offers spot trading without pushing you into futures or “earn” products.

Does Barqish hold my money or buy coins for me?

No. Barqish never holds your money, coins or keys and never places trades. It is a research and discipline tool; you trade on your own exchange account.

Shariah

Is crypto halal?

Scholars disagree. Some, including Mufti Taqi Usmani and Darul Uloom Karachi in 2026, consider crypto impermissible; others allow spot ownership of screened coins with conditions. Read what scholars say and follow a scholar you trust.

Is the Barqish screening a fatwa?

No. It applies published Shariah criteria (riba, gambling, excessive uncertainty, prohibited industries and real utility) to each coin and shows the reasoning. It is guidance, not a religious ruling.

Why does Barqish label some coins Compliant when some Pakistani muftis forbid all crypto?

Our labels follow the scholars who allow crypto with conditions, and we say so openly. If you follow a scholar who forbids crypto, our labels do not override that ruling for you.

Is day trading halal?

Scholars differ on frequent trading. Most agree the essentials are: spot only, your own money, full ownership before you sell, no leverage, no short selling, and not treating it like gambling. Barqish only shows day-trade ideas that meet those conditions.

Is staking halal?

Many scholars treat proof-of-stake rewards as a fee for helping run the network, not interest. Lending your coins for a fixed return is different and usually involves riba. Liquid staking tokens are marked Questionable on Barqish.

How do I pay zakat on crypto?

Many scholars treat crypto held to sell or trade like trade goods: 2.5% of its market value on your zakat date, if your total wealth is above the nisab for a lunar year. Use the zakat calculator and confirm with your scholar.

Using Barqish

What does Buy zone, Wait and Avoid mean?

Buy zone: the coin is in a calmer area where buying has historically carried better odds. Wait: be patient. Avoid: the setup is weak or risky. Verdicts are research, not instructions to buy or sell.

How accurate is Barqish?

Every daily verdict is recorded and graded 24 hours later on the public track record, hits and misses. The Accuracy Lab shows how each signal performed on data it never saw. Past results do not guarantee future results.

How many coins does Barqish cover?

Verdicts and live charts for 250 Binance spot pairs, Shariah screening for 133 coins with the reasoning shown, and 40 coins on Barqish Radar every day.

Can I use Barqish in Urdu?

Yes. The desk works in English and Roman Urdu, and the home page and glossary include Urdu.

Can I install Barqish on my phone?

Yes. Open barqish.com in your phone browser and add it to your home screen; it works like an app. See how to install.

Pro and payments

How much does Pro cost?

Pro Monthly is Rs 799 for 30 days, Pro Yearly is Rs 5,999 a year, and the Founding Member offer is Rs 3,999 for a year while it lasts. Coin screening stays free for everyone.

How do I pay?

By JazzCash or Easypaisa. Choose a plan in the app, send the amount, and upload your receipt with the transaction ID. We switch on Pro as soon as we confirm the payment, usually within a few hours.

Does Pro renew automatically?

No. Pro is paid once for the period you choose. When it ends your account returns to the free plan unless you pay again.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, in the cases set out in our refund policy: for example if you paid but Pro was not activated, or within 7 days for other requests, which we review fairly.

Is there a referral reward?

Yes. Share your link and when a friend buys their first Pro plan, you both get 7 extra days of Pro. See Refer a friend.

Safety

Will Barqish ever ask for my password or seed phrase?

Never. Barqish never asks for your exchange password, seed phrase, private keys or for crypto to “unlock” profits. Anyone who does is a scammer, even if they use our name.

How do I spot a crypto scam?

Guaranteed profits, pressure to act now, requests to send crypto first and anonymous “signal” groups are the usual signs. Paste any message into Scam Check to see the red flags.

Is my data safe?

Your account data is stored securely, passwords are hashed and payment screenshots are kept in a private folder. See our Privacy Policy. For help, message us on WhatsApp.
