Sharia Ratio Checker 2026: Is This Stock Screened?

Sharia screening of stocks rests on two famous numbers: debt below 33% and non-compliant income below 5%. Enter a company's figures (from its latest financial statements) and see instantly whether it passes the standard quantitative screens.

Sharia Ratio Checker

How we calculate — methodology

  • The 33% rule: interest-bearing debt divided by market capitalization must be below one-third. Scholars base this threshold on the well-known hadith "one-third, and one-third is much" (Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim) — one-third as the boundary between "much" and "little."
  • The 5% rule: non-compliant income divided by total income must be below 5%, and even that small portion must be purified (see our purification calculator).
  • Source: AAOIFI Sharia standards; methodologies of Dow Jones Islamic Market Index and S&P Sharia indices apply equivalent thresholds (aaoifi.com).
  • Note: some methodologies use 30% of total assets instead of 33% of market cap, and add liquidity screens. Always check the methodology your fund follows.
