Wedding dowries are typically given as gifts or assets of a specified value, such as money, gold, real estate, houses, automobiles, or other commodities. Couples are now creating bitcoin as a wedding dowry, in keeping with the times. The use of bitcoin as a dowry in marriage raises an interesting issue because it cannot be regarded as an object because it lacks a physical form and cannot be regarded as legal tender because it is not issued by the appropriate government. A literature review was the approach employed in this investigation. This study found that there are two opinions on the permissibility of bitcoin as a dowry, firstly bitcoin should not be used as a dowry in a marriage because of the element of gharar in bitcoin. The second opinion is that bitcoin can be used as a wedding dowry because there is regulation by the government, but it is an asset or commodity like gold that can be traded, and this bitcoin has a useful value according to the legal terms of the dowry.
Mahar pernikahan pada umumnya berbentuk barang atau harta denominas itertentu, seperti uang tunai, emas, tanah, apartemen, mobil, atau barang berharga lainnya. Seiring dengan perkembangan zaman, terdapat pasangan yang menjadikan bitcoin sebagai mahar pernikahan. Bitcoin tidak dapat dikatakan sebagai barang karena tidak mempunyai bentuk fisik serta tidak bisa dikatakan sebagai uang yang sah karena tidak diterbitkan oleh otoritas yang berwenang, sehingga menjadi pertanyaan menarik terhadap penggunaan bitcoin sebagai mahar dalam pernikahan. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah kajian pustaka. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa ada dua pendapat kebolehan bitcoin sebagai mahar, pertama bitcoin tidak boleh digunakan sebagai mahar dalam pernikahan karena adanya unsurg harar dalam bitcoin. Pendapat kedua, bitcoin ini boleh digunakan sebagai mahar pernikahan karena sudah ada regulasi oleh pemerintah, namun sebagai aset atau komoditi layaknya emas yang dapat diperdagangkan, dan bitcoin ini memiliki nilai manfaat sesuai dengan syarat sah mahar.
