The 177 Stocks Where Halal Screening Authorities Disagree
The same stock can be “halal” in one app and “not halal” in another — and both apps are applying their methodology correctly. This page documents every recorded case, side by side. No screening app can publish this list; a neutral scorekeeper can.
Do the halal screening authorities agree with each other?
Of the 321 U.S.-screened entities where at least two recognized halal screening authorities have published a position, the authorities disagree on 177 (55%). On 32 stocks the split is direct — at least one authority rates the stock halal while another rates it not halal. The disagreement is almost always methodology, not error: AAOIFI caps debt at 30% of market cap while other standards use ~33% or total assets, and data dates differ.
HalalWallet is not a Shariah authority and does not issue religious rulings. We compile the most complete public record of what Shariah scholars, screening authorities, and mainstream standards say — reproduced from primary sources with dates and citations — and let you decide.
Direct conflicts: halal on one authority, not halal on another32
The starkest cases. Click any company for the full verdict — the exact ratios, each authority's dated position, and what drives the split.
Almost every split traces to methodology: AAOIFI caps interest-bearing debt at 30% of market capitalization, Dow Jones/S&P use ~33%, and MSCI/FTSE screen against total assets. Add different data dates and different treatment of borderline revenue, and a company near a threshold flips between standards.

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.
