Abstract

Mystery box is one of the promotions in sales by selling boxes where the products contained in it are uncertain and can include various items, so that buyers cannot guess what is inside or what they will get later. The mystery box sales promotion method is now in all e-commerce online stores today. the purpose of this study is to explain the meaning and law in Islamic law and positive law in Indonesia. and it can be concluded that in the mystery box sales promotion even though the product is owned by the seller and has benefits, the agreement is in accordance with Sharia law, and Ijab and Qabul are valid even though the two parties are not in the same place. However, according to Islamic law, buying and selling with a mystery box system is not valid because one party does not know the contents of the product he will receive, which contains uncertainty (gharar). Because the conditions for valid sale and purchase listed in Article 1320 of the Civil Code are not fulfilled, namely the object requirements, the mystery box sale and purchase is also not allowed according to positive law.
