Zoya Screening
While analyzing the stock for halalness, Zoya looks at whether the company has a lot of debt, interest, high liquidity or storing lots of cash.
According to the analysis of Zoya, the compliance status of the stock is categorized as follows: compliant, questionable, and non-compliant. For instance: based on the Zoya app screening result, the compliance status of Apple stock is questionable. It is because 18% of the income comes from non-halal business activities. Whilst Zoya confirms famous company Tesla to be shariah-compliant stock. Also, Zoya shows that Altria company which produces tobacco and e-cigarettes to be non-shariah compliant. Because 100% of Altria’s revenue comes from haram business activities. Moreover, Altria has a lot of debt as well.
Zoya app is a very helpful tool because it provides not only full reports about stocks but also it offers news, articles about the stocks. Moreover, if the compliance status of your stock changes, you can receive an email update. Moreover, Zoya halal investment app offers alternative halal stocks to your non-compliant stocks.
