Q: I restore my iphone "iOS 9.3.2" but don't have a sim to activate it. can i activate it with my apple id

You can not active an iPhone without a SIM card, but out of curiosity, what do you plan to do with an iPhone without a SIM card? 

Hi, try these steps If you can't activate your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch after installing iOS 9.3 - Apple Support

Sadly, none of those steps will help if the OP had no SIM.

There's no way to activate your iPhone without a Sim Card. You can use a invalid sim card if you can't afford one right now. And then activate through iTunes.
