Halal Contract Structures — Provider Coverage (U.S.)
The structure is what makes a product halal — not a marketing label. This dataset takes each Shariah contract structure used by a real U.S. provider and joins it to its authoritative glossary definition AND to live coverage from HalalWallet's product registry: which providers offer it, how many products use it, in which categories (home financing, business financing, banking, retirement, etc.), how many states it reaches, and how many of those products are linked to a published halal verdict. It answers the high-intent questions search engines and assistants get constantly — 'who actually offers Ijara home financing,' 'which providers use diminishing Musharakah,' 'is Murabaha really halal' — by fusing definition and availability in one structured table. Product *approaches* that are not contracts (index screening, robo-advisory, stock screeners) are deliberately excluded so the taxonomy stays Shariah-accurate. No other publisher maintains a live contract-structure-to-provider map for the U.S. market.

Contract structures & who offers them
The structure is what makes a product halal. Each Shariah contract below is joined to its glossary definition and to live coverage from the product registry — who offers it, how many products use it, and how many carry a published verdict.
| Structure | Providers | Products | Categories | Verdict-linked |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Musharakah | 5 | 19 | Bank Accounts, Business Financing, Home & Personal Financing, Retirement | 0 |
| Ijara | 2 | 10 | Business Financing, Home & Personal Financing | 0 |
| Qard Hasan | 3 | 8 | Bank Accounts, Business Financing, Home & Personal Financing | 0 |
| Murabaha | 1 | 5 | Business Financing, Home & Personal Financing | 0 |
| Takaful | 1 | 2 | Insurance | 0 |
Only true Shariah contracts are shown — product approaches that are not contracts (index screening, robo-advisory) are excluded so the taxonomy stays accurate.
