Manzil Wealth Management
Halal Investing in Louisiana
Manzil's US managed investing service is live: Manzil Investment Advisors, LLC (SEC-registered, Dallas) runs fully managed, Shariah-certified robo portfolios built from AAOIFI-screened halal ETFs, sukuk, REITs, and gold and silver ETFs across three risk profiles, with automatic rebalancing and continuous compliance monitoring that removes and replaces holdings that fall out of compliance. Pricing is a 0.40% AUM fee plus a $48/year subscription waived at $100,000; accounts start at a $100 asset minimum across Individual, Traditional IRA, and Roth IRA types, with custody at Alpaca Securities (SIPC-protected).
Manzil's US managed portfolios have quietly become one of the cheaper full-service halal robos: 0.40% plus $48 a year, with the subscription disappearing at $100K - undercutting Wahed's 0.49% + $60 at most balances. The portfolios are properly diversified for a faith-constrained mandate (halal ETFs, sukuk, REITs, precious-metals ETFs), compliance is monitored continuously, and the AAOIFI-anchored governance carries published certificates. Two things temper enthusiasm. The flat $48 makes small accounts expensive in percentage terms - fund it seriously or wait. And the paperwork lags the website: the filed Form ADV still shows a $2/month + 0.49% schedule, so confirm the fee you will actually pay. For US Muslims who want hands-off investing with real Shariah governance at a fair price, it belongs on the shortlist next to Wahed.
Pros
- Live and accessible: $100 minimum with a simple 0.40% + $48/year price
- Certified professionals manage and rebalance the portfolio for you
- Oversight by an in-house Shariah board plus external scholars, to AAOIFI standards
- Diversified beyond equities: sukuk, REITs, and gold/silver ETFs in the models
- Individual, Traditional IRA, and Roth IRA accounts; excess SIPC coverage raised to $75M via Alpaca
Cons
- The $48 subscription is heavy on small accounts - on $1,000 it adds nearly 5% a year on top of the 0.40%
- Fee disclosures conflict: the website says 0.40% + $48/year while the filed Form ADV lists $2/month + 0.49%
- Three broad risk profiles only - no customization or individual stock selection
- US operation is young (Aghaz acquired in November 2024) with small regulatory AUM at the start of 2025

How to use this comparison: HalalWallet is an independent educational comparison platform - by design, we do not provide financial, legal, or religious advice. We do the research homework so your final checks are quick and personal.
Product structures and Shariah oversight vary by provider, so finish with three built-in steps:
- Confirm current terms and halal compliance directly with the provider - their quote is final.
- Review the contract structure (Murabaha, Ijara, Musharakah, etc.) and any disclosed Shariah board opinions.
- Bring your shortlist to a qualified Islamic finance advisor or scholar, so the conversation is about your situation, not the basics.
