To this date, technology has seen massive development and, it influences the economic field. The emergence of the metaverse has become an inevitable part of this progress. It serves as a digital world, wherein everyone is able carry out a vast array of activities, including economic transactions. The emergence of digital assets, that has encouraged serious discussion, is inseparable from Islamic law. One of these digital assets is the Non-Fungible Token (NFT). This digital asset is the focus of this study, specifically on for its posibility to become material guarantees. This article employs a qualitative study and presented descriptively through the perspective of Islamic law. The result of this study is that the pledged-object (marhūn) has certain primary conditions for it to be functional, namely: it is a property, it has value, it can be traded, its asset value is clearly known, and it is actually owned by the guarantor (rāhin). The concept of marhūn as a valuable object ultimately answers that NFT is included in the marhūn category. However, since NFTs do not stand alone if the transaction currency used in the metaverse is cryptocurrencies, al-rahn transactions using NFTs become less favourable considering Cyrptocurrency is deemed to be haram.
The pace of technological development can no longer be restrained until the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI), which later turns out to negatively impact its application. AI is a computer system program created by humans. On the one hand, the invention of AI makes human work easier. On the other hand, it is also noticeable that there are several criminal cases "performed" by AI. This research is qualitative research with doctrinal approach. The data used include secondary data consisting of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The method of data collection is done through document study. The research concludes that the inventor of an invention of artificial intelligence can be charged with legal responsibility by applying the limits of liability both in civil and penal sanction. Further studies are needed to answer the question of how far this responsibility can be carried out.
