Akinda fund screen

Akinda fund screen (AAOIFI-derived)Not halalCoverage: 96.03%

Halal 41.31%
Doubtful 2.61%
Not halal 52.11%
Not rated 3.97%

The bar is scaled to fit; the figures are as reported, and the buckets do not always total 100%.

Coverage is the share of the fund's weight we hold a usable verdict for. Below 95%, a fund is rated only when the weight we can see already breaches the 5% limit; otherwise it is not rated by this method.

Venue is where a fund trades; domicile is where it is registered. London-listed funds are domiciled in Ireland or Luxembourg, so use Venue for UK ETFs.

Five rulebooks

Rulebook	Verdict	Halal	Not halal
Akinda fund screen (AAOIFI)	Not halal	41.31%	52.11%
DJIM	Not halal	42.49%	50.03%
FTSE	Not halal	31.87%	62.68%
MSCI	Not halal	32.65%	61.12%
S&P	Not halal	45.79%	46.00%

Every bar uses the same 0–100% scale. Index rulebooks report only halal and not-halal weight; uncoloured weight is weight that rulebook does not classify. Coverage is published for the Akinda fund screen only.

The fund screen and the four index rulebooks answer different questions, so they are expected to disagree. A fund can be doubtful on our fund screen and halal under S&P; both are correct.

Not rated means we hold no usable verdict for that company; it is never treated as compliant.
