Vagabond, I 100% agree with what you are saying. I want to have a response to the people that say, "What If orWhat is the difference". A response for the people who say that there is no difference.

For gambling, I think someone can make a strong argument.

Betting can make it into a gray area. As people do with Hijab, interest, etc.

Asalaam
The difference is with betting you don't actually own anything, with investing you invest in an assett which is why speculation is more akin to gambling because of ownership with some people especially day traders sometimes holding a stock for a couple of hours or minutes, they can not take full ownership or invest in a couple of hours or minutes.
