Sale and purchase transactions are one of the most basic activities of humans to meet their needs. However, some modern transaction issues can perplex people, particularly those made through shopping platforms and social media. Among these issues are the rules governing riba (usury) in sale and purchase transactions. This can lead to the actors in the transactions falling into forbidden activities without even realizing it. This research is a descriptive qualitative literature review. Primary data were in the form of verses from the Qur'an and Prophetic traditions concerning riba, as well as secondary data in the form of literature and related studies. Based on the finding of this research, there are two types of riba in sale and purchase contracts: riba al-fadhl and riba an-nasi'ah. Both types are widely found in various online transactions, even though it is well understood that riba is haram and falls under the category of major sins. It is expected that by understanding these rules, online buyers and sellers will be more cautious with the transactions.
