Independent halal stock platform comparison

Best Halal Stock Platforms and Screeners in 2026

Compare 20halal stock brokers, screeners, managed investing services, research providers, and fund-access routes. HalalInvestGuide separates each provider's role, Shariah evidence, total cost, country access, and account-level risks. ETF-level research belongs in the separate ETF evidence directory.

Ranked directory

Start with the platform that matches the job

Start with the role label, then open the full evidence block. These entries are not interchangeable: screeners research assets, brokers execute orders, managed portfolios make allocation decisions, and fund providers issue products. ETFs are investments rather than platforms, so all 14 ETF rows are compared in their own matrix below instead of inflating this 20-platform ranking.

Fast, evidence-led answers

The best option depends on the job

These are HalalInvestGuide's current use-case picks after checking official pricing, methodology, coverage, product, and account disclosures. Provider-reported coverage figures are labelled as such in the detailed reviews.

How a use-case pick is selected

HalalInvestGuide does not apply one numerical score across unlike products. A use-case pick must first have a clear product role, current official evidence, a usable price or explicit pricing gap, documented access or coverage, and an account/product boundary. It is then compared only with platforms capable of doing the same job. Coverage claims remain provider reported unless an independent source verifies them.

Faith-aware boundary

Inclusion is not a blanket halal ruling, fatwa, certification, or personal recommendation. Review the asset, methodology, account settings, financing, cash, lending, and product structure separately.

20 editorial records

Platform facts first, analysis alongside them

Each entry keeps the provider snapshot separate from the editorial assessment. Read the left rail for dated facts, then use the analysis to understand who the route may suit, what it does not prove, and what still needs checking.

Managed halal investing

Wahed Invest

Review pending

Why it sits here

The clearest halal-first managed route in this mixed directory, with published regional fee, minimum, legal-entity, and Shariah-governance material.

Bottom line: Best fit when portfolio management matters more than self-directed stock picking.

Wahed is the clearest halal-first managed route in this directory. It can simplify portfolio construction, but investors still need to verify the exact regional product and the funds or securities held inside it.

Wahed Shariah · Aug 30, 2026

Best for

Investors who want a guided halal portfolio rather than building and screening every holding themselves.

Official scale / access

Managed products differ by country; the U.S. and UK entities publish separate account, minimum, fee, and legal disclosures.

Pricing and fees

U.S. minimum $100; published U.S. wrap fee ranges from 0.49% + $60 to 0.49% annually. UK minimum £50. Confirm the schedule for the local entity.

Method / structure

Managed halal portfolios with product-level screening and Shariah governance; the actual holdings depend on the regional portfolio selected.

Update cadence

Portfolio and certificate dates vary by product; recheck the current regional documents before funding.

Regulation / governance

The U.S. adviser states SEC registration; the global legal page describes an ADGM FSRA-regulated entity. Wahed publishes Shariah governance and reports.

Account or product boundary

Wahed manages the portfolio. Country, entity, wrapper, cash treatment, underlying funds, tax, and withdrawal terms still need local review.

Before you act: Confirm the local legal entity, portfolio, minimum, cash treatment, and total fee before funding.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Wahed publishes Shariah governance, certificates, and product-level documentation.

Wahed has useful public evidence for Shariah governance, fee structure, and risk disclosures. Pricing and product scope still need market-by-market confirmation because Wahed operates through regional entities.

Strengths

  • Halal-first managed workflow
  • Published Shariah governance
  • Beginner-friendly portfolio route

Limitations

  • Fees and product scope vary by country
  • Not a universal self-directed brokerage
  • Underlying holdings still require product-level review

Evidence sources and checks

Verify current fees, product scope, methodology, country eligibility, and support directly on the official site.

2

Halal stock screener

Musaffa

Review pending

Why it sits here

The strongest research-first candidate here for broad stock and ETF coverage, a published AAOIFI methodology, portfolio monitoring, and purification data.

Bottom line: Best evidence-backed choice for deep screening; it does not replace a brokerage account.

Musaffa is a research-first option for investors who want more than a quick badge. Its screening and portfolio tools can support due diligence, while execution, tax treatment, and account settings remain separate decisions.

Musaffa pricing · Aug 30, 2026

Best for

Frequent stock and ETF screening, portfolio monitoring, purification work, and deeper AAOIFI-focused research.

Official scale / access

Company reports 120,000+ stocks and 8,200+ ETFs across 60 markets; these are provider-reported coverage figures, not an independent audit.

Pricing and fees

Premium is listed at $200 per year on the official pricing page; eligibility for promotions and current local pricing must be checked live.

Method / structure

AAOIFI-focused screen: 5% non-permissible revenue, 30% total assets for cash/interest-bearing items, and 30% trailing 36-month average market value for debt.

Update cadence

Depends on financial-statement and market-data refreshes; users should inspect the dated report for the security.

Regulation / governance

Musaffa states SEC investment-adviser registration and publishes an Amanah Advisors methodology certification; registration does not validate every investment.

Account or product boundary

Research, monitoring, alerts, and purification support. Trades and broker-account settings remain outside Musaffa.

Before you act: Use a separate broker and verify that the broker account does not enable unwanted margin, interest, or stock lending.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Musaffa publishes AAOIFI-focused methodology and pricing information on its official pages.

Musaffa provides current official detail for pricing, provider-reported research coverage, its AAOIFI-focused ratio methodology, portfolio tools, purification, and the boundary between research and trade execution.

Strengths

  • Detailed screening workflow
  • Portfolio and purification tools
  • Broad research use case

Limitations

  • Paid features may be needed
  • Does not itself prove suitability
  • Trading access comes from a separate broker

Evidence sources and checks

Verify current fees, product scope, methodology, country eligibility, and support directly on the official site.

3

Halal stock screener

Zoya

Review pending

Why it sits here

The easiest free first-pass screener in the group, with a clearly documented AAOIFI default and a paid option for comparing five methodologies.

Bottom line: Best free starting point; Pro is more useful when methodology comparison and full reports matter.

Zoya is an accessible screening starting point for self-directed investors. It is useful for quick research and monitoring, but a status result does not replace reviewing the evidence, the investment vehicle, or the brokerage account.

A clean, mobile-first first pass on stocks and funds with optional paid research and methodology comparison.

Official scale / access

Official help lists stocks in 12 named countries plus OTC; U.S. coverage also includes stocks, ETFs, and mutual funds.

Pricing and fees

U.S. help documentation lists Pro at $14.99/month or $119.99/year; app-store and country pricing can differ.

Method / structure

AAOIFI is the default. Pro can compare AAOIFI, S&P, MSCI, DJIM, and FTSE methods.

Update cadence

Zoya says U.S. issuers generally refresh quarterly, while many international issuers refresh semiannually or annually.

Regulation / governance

Methodology is documented in official help content; a screener result is research, not brokerage approval or a personal fatwa.

Account or product boundary

The free tier shows compliance status; Pro unlocks full reports and broader portfolio tools. A separate broker executes trades.

Before you act: Recheck a security when its financials or business mix changes and confirm execution settings with your broker.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Zoya documents AAOIFI as its default standard and explains additional methodology comparison for Pro users.

Zoya has strong help-center evidence for screening methodology and Pro features. The old 'no premium tiers' wording is no longer reliable, so the review should describe Zoya as freemium.

Strengths

  • Useful free starting point
  • Clear AAOIFI-focused help content
  • Simple mobile workflow

Limitations

  • Deeper tools require Pro
  • Not a broker
  • Different methods can produce different results

Evidence sources and checks

Verify current fees, product scope, methodology, country eligibility, and support directly on the official site.

4

Halal screening app

Islamicly

Review pending

Why it sits here

Useful for AAOIFI-oriented screening and broker-linked workflows, but its live numeric plan pricing was not exposed in the official page reviewed.

Bottom line: Promising screener with useful tools; price transparency is weaker than the best-documented alternatives.

Islamicly can provide another screening perspective, which is useful when methods disagree. HalalInvestGuide treats its current pricing, coverage, and methodology depth cautiously until the live app and official support material are fully rechecked.

Official site advertises 32+ broker integrations; the current security-universe total was not publicly verified in the reviewed source.

Pricing and fees

Monthly, quarterly, and annual plans are shown, but a current numeric price was not publicly verified from the rendered official page.

Method / structure

AAOIFI-oriented stock screening, portfolio monitoring, purification, zakat, and broker integrations.

Update cadence

Official marketing states daily compliance updates; confirm what data and markets that cadence covers.

Regulation / governance

Official pages describe Shariah screening and tools; HalalInvestGuide did not verify a product-specific regulator or certificate covering every result.

Account or product boundary

Screening and portfolio research; broker linkage does not make the linked broker account or every enabled feature Shariah-suitable.

Before you act: Confirm the current methodology, update frequency, plan price, country coverage, and broker account settings.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Relevant as a Shariah screening service, but current methodology detail and coverage limits need further verification.

Islamicly publishes enough official information to support its AAOIFI-oriented screening, portfolio, purification, zakat, broker-integration, and daily-update positioning. Numeric subscription pricing and a current security-universe total were not exposed in the reviewed public pages.

Strengths

  • Faith-focused screening workflow
  • Portfolio-monitoring use case
  • Useful as a second opinion

Limitations

  • Evidence record remains limited
  • Not a brokerage account
  • Current plan details need verification

Evidence sources and checks

Verify current fees, product scope, methodology, country eligibility, and support directly on the official site.

5

Managed portfolio platform

Sarwa

Review pending

Why it sits here

A practical Middle East managed route with a published halal minimum, fee, portfolio ingredients, risk levels, and ADGM regulatory disclosure.

Bottom line: Best managed option in this list for an eligible Middle East investor who wants a risk-based halal portfolio.

Sarwa is a practical managed route for eligible regional investors. It should be assessed product by product because the same brand can offer multiple account experiences and the halal portfolio claim does not apply to every possible feature.

Official scale / access

Seven risk levels are published. Eligibility depends on residency and restrictions; U.S. persons are not accepted for the reviewed route.

Pricing and fees

Sarwa Invest publishes a 0.85% annual management fee and a $500 minimum for the halal portfolio; underlying product costs can also apply.

Method / structure

Managed halal portfolio using Islamic ETFs, sukuk, and a gold ETC; exact allocation depends on risk profile.

Update cadence

Managed portfolio monitoring and rebalancing; investors should recheck current holdings and fund documents.

Regulation / governance

Sarwa states ADGM FSRA Category 3C regulation and separately discloses that it does not hold an Islamic Window endorsement.

Account or product boundary

Sarwa manages the portfolio. Eligibility, underlying-fund costs, cash, withdrawals, and tax remain investor-specific.

Before you act: Confirm the legal entity, regulator, portfolio holdings, fee tier, minimum, and whether the selected product is the halal portfolio.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Sarwa publishes halal portfolio information, while its disclosures require careful entity-level wording.

Sarwa has good official evidence for fees, minimum investment, regulation, and halal portfolio construction. The Shariah claim needs careful wording because Sarwa also discloses that it does not hold an FSRA Islamic Window endorsement.

Strengths

  • Regional managed-investing route
  • Published fee and minimum information
  • Halal portfolio option

Limitations

  • Country and entity restrictions
  • Product-specific rather than blanket status
  • Portfolio holdings can change

Evidence sources and checks

Verify current fees, product scope, methodology, country eligibility, and support directly on the official site.

6

Broker and trading infrastructure

Alpaca

Review pending

Why it sits here

Strong API-first U.S. execution infrastructure, but it is a conventional broker and every account and asset needs a separate Shariah review.

Bottom line: Best for developers; not a halal screener and not a halal-certified brokerage route.

Alpaca belongs in this comparison as an execution route, not as proof that an investment is halal. It fits users who can combine brokerage access with an independent screening and account-control workflow.

Best for

Self-directed investors or developers who already have a separate Shariah screening process and need US-market execution infrastructure.

Official scale / access

U.S. brokerage and API workflow; market and country access depend on the account and product program.

Pricing and fees

$0 commission is advertised for eligible U.S.-listed trades in self-directed individual cash accounts; regulatory, market, data, and other fees may apply.

Method / structure

No built-in halal screen established by the reviewed sources. Users must bring a separate methodology and screened universe.

Update cadence

Execution and market data are operational services; Shariah re-screening cadence comes from the external screener chosen by the user.

Regulation / governance

Alpaca Securities states SEC/FINRA registration and SIPC coverage; those protections do not certify Shariah compliance.

Account or product boundary

Alpaca documentation says live accounts open as margin accounts. Under $2,000 equity, buying power is limited to 1x; $2,000 can unlock margin and shorting permissions.

Before you act: Check margin, interest on cash, securities lending, crypto access, order handling, and the entity serving the account.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Alpaca is not a halal screener or certification service; every asset and account feature needs separate review.

Alpaca is useful as brokerage and API infrastructure, but it is not a halal stock screener. The review should separate trading access from Shariah screening and warn users about margin, crypto, securities lending, and account-level disclosures.

Strengths

  • Flexible brokerage infrastructure
  • Useful for custom investing workflows
  • US-market access

Limitations

  • No built-in halal certification
  • Account features require careful configuration
  • Availability depends on account or partner setup

Evidence sources and checks

Verify current fees, product scope, methodology, country eligibility, and support directly on the official site.

7

Global broker access

Interactive Brokers

Review pending

Why it sits here

The broadest global broker access in the list, supported by concrete market and currency figures, but it remains a conventional execution venue.

Bottom line: Best global broker access after screening; audit cash, margin, lending, permissions, and each instrument separately.

Interactive Brokers offers broad execution access, but breadth also creates more account-level decisions. Muslim investors should treat screening, permitted instruments, cash treatment, lending, and margin as separate checks before placing a trade.

Official scale / access

IBKR reports 170+ markets in 40 countries and 29 currencies.

Pricing and fees

U.S. stocks/ETFs: published Pro pricing starts at $0.0005–$0.0035/share tiered or $0.005/share fixed, with minimums; other markets have separate schedules.

Method / structure

No platform-wide halal screen in the reviewed brokerage sources. Pair it with an independent screener and current fund/security documents.

Update cadence

Trading and reference data update operationally; Shariah review frequency depends on the separate source selected.

Regulation / governance

Regulated brokerage group across entities; account protections and rules depend on the legal entity. Regulation is not a Shariah certification.

Account or product boundary

Cash interest, margin, shorting, derivatives, and the Stock Yield Enhancement Program need explicit review. The lending program pays clients 50% of the market-based rate received by IBKR.

Before you act: Disable or avoid margin, interest-bearing cash features, stock yield enhancement, short selling, and unsuitable instruments as required by your process.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Interactive Brokers does not certify holdings as halal; it is an execution route for independently screened assets.

Interactive Brokers is useful as a broker access route for screened stocks and ETFs, including Singapore users, but it is not a Shariah screener or halal certification service. The review should separate execution access, regulator evidence, fees, and account features from the halal status of each asset.

Strengths

  • Broad global market access
  • Strong self-directed toolset
  • Useful ETF and multi-currency route

Limitations

  • Not a halal platform by default
  • Complex account settings
  • Fees and protections vary by entity
8

Halal investing research

Practical Islamic Finance

Review pending

Why it sits here

Research and model-portfolio guidance can help idea generation, but execution remains manual and public pricing is less transparent than the leading screeners.

Bottom line: Best treated as a research membership, not as a broker or a mechanical compliance database.

Practical Islamic Finance is primarily a research and education layer. Its official site says subscribers use their own broker, so it should not be compared with a brokerage or managed account as though they were the same product.

Official scale / access

The provider reports 25,000 members; security-universe coverage was not publicly verified in the reviewed official plan page.

Pricing and fees

Free, Premium, and Elite features are described; a current numeric membership price was not publicly verified from the official rendered plan page.

Method / structure

Research, halal-screened ideas, model portfolios, education, and analyst commentary; users place trades through their own broker.

Update cadence

Daily research is advertised; compliance and model-portfolio timing should be checked inside the plan selected.

Regulation / governance

Educational and research boundaries are disclosed; confirm which specific advisory or non-advisory service is being purchased.

Account or product boundary

Most subscriber funds stay at the subscriber's own broker. A separately described advisory product has a $100,000 minimum and should not be confused with the research membership.

Before you act: Separate research ideas from execution, verify every holding at decision time, and review the broker account independently.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

The official site describes Shariah screening of business activities, interest income, and debt ratios.

Practical Islamic Finance publishes current official evidence for its research, halal-screened stock and crypto reports, model-portfolio guidance, education, membership workflow, and the requirement for most subscribers to place trades through their own broker.

Strengths

  • Halal-focused research and education
  • Portfolio commentary and community
  • Works with a separate broker

Limitations

  • Not direct trade execution
  • Subscription research is not personalized suitability advice
  • Past performance does not guarantee results

Evidence sources and checks

Verify current fees, product scope, methodology, country eligibility, and support directly on the official site.

US halal wealth management

ShariaPortfolio

Review pending

Why it sits here

A source-complete US managed route with two clearly separated retail minimums, SEC registration, published service boundaries, and AAOIFI-oriented governance.

Bottom line: Best for US investors choosing between a $1,000 digital portfolio and higher-touch wealth management from $100,000.

ShariaPortfolio is a stronger US managed route than an unverified directory listing because its advisory status, relationship summary, service boundaries, and Shariah process are traceable to official records. Its higher traditional managed-account minimum means the digital and full-service routes must not be conflated.

Best for

US investors who want a fee-only adviser to build and manage a Shariah-compliant portfolio rather than selecting every holding themselves.

Official scale / access

Four service routes are documented: Access, Express, 401(k), and Institutional. Eligibility remains subject to state notice filing and service rules.

Pricing and fees

Express is presented for investors with $1,000 or more; Access is presented for clients with $100,000 or more. Advisory fees are asset-based and require the current disclosure brochure.

Method / structure

Managed portfolios use stocks, mutual funds, and ETFs, with ShariaPortfolio stating that portfolios follow AAOIFI rules and receive adviser oversight.

Update cadence

Portfolio monitoring is ongoing; the current Form ADV, Form CRS, service page, allocation, and Shariah review should be checked at onboarding.

Regulation / governance

SEC IAPD lists ShariaPortfolio, Inc. as approved since Dec. 16, 2014 under CRD 173937 / SEC 801-80652. SEC registration is not an endorsement.

Account or product boundary

The digital and comprehensive wealth-management services have different minimums and support models. Custodian, asset-based fee, fund expenses, tax wrapper, and local eligibility remain account-specific.

Before you act: Confirm which service, custodian, minimum, advisory fee, underlying fund expense, account wrapper, and tax treatment apply.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

ShariaPortfolio publishes its AAOIFI approach, named Sharia adviser, Form CRS, and SEC adviser registration record.

ShariaPortfolio has a traceable managed-investing evidence chain: SEC IAPD registration, Form CRS, separate Access and Express minimums, four documented service routes, and an AAOIFI-oriented Shariah process. Service-specific fees and local eligibility still require the current onboarding disclosures.

Strengths

  • Fee-only registered adviser
  • Published AAOIFI-oriented process
  • Managed, retirement, and institutional routes

Limitations

  • General managed-account minimum is high
  • US-focused eligibility
  • Current service-specific fees require confirmation

Multi-standard halal screener

Muslim Xchange

Review pending

Why it sits here

The most transparent multi-standard research option in the group, with concrete coverage, feature, cadence, and plan data.

Bottom line: Best for comparing several Shariah standards rather than accepting a single yes/no badge.

Muslim Xchange is a research platform rather than an execution venue. Its multi-standard approach can make methodology differences visible, which is especially useful when a security passes one standard and fails another.

Method / structure

AAOIFI, S&P, DJIM, FTSE, MSCI, Al Rajhi, Alinma, and Al Bilad screening standards.

Update cadence

Official membership page states compliance data updates quarterly and financial data updates daily.

Regulation / governance

Methodologies and eight named standards are published; users must choose which standard they follow.

Account or product boundary

Research, watchlists, portfolio analysis, purification, and zakat. Muslim Xchange states it is not a broker, investment adviser, or portfolio manager.

Before you act: Choose the standard you intend to follow and verify the broker, account settings, and security again before execution.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

The official site describes eight named Shariah standards and AAOIFI-certified advisor/auditor oversight.

Muslim Xchange publishes current official evidence for multi-standard stock and ETF screening, portfolio tools, purification, zakat, individual plans, and institutional data services. It is a research platform rather than a broker.

Strengths

  • Eight named screening standards
  • Stocks and ETF research
  • Purification, zakat, and portfolio tools

Limitations

  • Paid plan for deeper access
  • Not a broker
  • Users still need to choose and understand a methodology

Halal stock screening service

Finispia

Review pending

Why it sits here

A broad multi-method screening data layer with useful exchange and universe figures, but current subscription pricing and purification delivery remain incomplete.

Bottom line: Useful for multi-method research; verify plan pricing and do not assume purification is already available.

Finispia is best read as a screening and data layer. Its site distinguishes current screening services from an investing feature described as coming soon, so HalalInvestGuide does not treat it as a live brokerage route.

A free trial includes three stock screens; current paid pricing was not publicly verified from the reviewed help pages.

Method / structure

Five named screening methods with consumer, API, widget, and business use cases.

Update cadence

Official help describes daily and intraday data updates; confirm which fields receive each cadence.

Regulation / governance

Method choices are disclosed; purification is described as a future feature in the reviewed help page.

Account or product boundary

Screening and data tooling. Broker connection or separate brokerage access is still needed for execution.

Before you act: Confirm the screening standard, data freshness, plan scope, and whether a separate broker is required for the intended workflow.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

The official site presents halal screening services, but HalalInvestGuide still needs a fuller methodology and pricing review.

Finispia currently presents halal screening, education, API, widget, and business solutions. Its official navigation labels direct investing as coming soon, so HalalInvestGuide treats Finispia as a research and data route rather than a live broker.

Strengths

  • Consumer and business screening tools
  • API and widget options
  • Education and research positioning

Limitations

  • Direct investing is not presented as live
  • Pricing needs verification
  • Methodology detail needs fuller review

Institutional screening data

IdealRatings

Review pending

Why it sits here

The strongest professional and institutional data option, with much larger published cross-asset coverage than consumer screeners.

Bottom line: Best for institutions and data teams; overkill for a retail investor who only needs a mobile stock check.

IdealRatings is an institutional data provider, not a like-for-like alternative to a retail stock app. It belongs in the directory for professional screening workflows and should be evaluated through a demo and data agreement.

Asset managers, institutions, and professional teams that need Islamic finance screening data and configurable research delivery.

Official scale / access

Company reports 40,000+ issuers, 450,000+ fixed-income instruments, and 850+ REITs; REIT coverage spans 35+ nations.

Pricing and fees

Enterprise and institutional pricing is not publicly listed; buyers need a scope-specific quote or demo.

Method / structure

Configurable Islamic-finance screening across equities, ETFs, sukuk, REITs, and private assets, with purification and zakat datasets.

Update cadence

Official solutions material describes daily, monthly, and quarterly compliance delivery depending on dataset and mandate.

Regulation / governance

Methodology and guideline configuration are contract-specific; professional buyers should verify licensed coverage and service levels.

Account or product boundary

Licensed data, reports, portals, feeds, and custom screens — not a consumer brokerage account or trade-execution service.

Before you act: Confirm the licensed dataset, guideline configuration, delivery channel, coverage, update process, and commercial contract.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Official materials describe Islamic finance screening, purification, zakat, and continuous-compliance solutions.

IdealRatings publishes official evidence for institutional Islamic finance data, analytical tools, online platforms, reports, and data feeds. It is a professional screening-data provider rather than a consumer brokerage account.

Strengths

  • Institutional Islamic finance coverage
  • Configurable guidelines and delivery
  • Equity, ETF, sukuk, REIT, and private-asset scope

Canada and US halal managed investing

Manzil

Review pending

Why it sits here

A current two-country managed-investing route with explicit US pricing, broad Canadian account wrappers, named legal entities, and published purification responsibilities.

Bottom line: Best for Canada/US managed halal accounts after selecting the correct country entity and fee schedule.

Manzil now belongs in the stock-platform comparison because the current site documents live managed-investing routes, not only home finance. The Canadian Corex and US Manzil Invest services are separate regulatory and pricing paths, so this review preserves that boundary.

Official scale / access

Canada pages document TFSA, RRSP, FHSA, RESP, LIRA, RRIF, personal, joint, corporate, and trust routes; US pages document taxable and retirement accounts.

Pricing and fees

US Core: $48 annually plus 0.40% MER with a $100 minimum; the annual subscription is waived at $100,000. Canadian Corex fees need country-specific confirmation.

Method / structure

Custom managed portfolios are provided by Corex in Canada and Manzil Investment Advisors in the US, with AAOIFI-oriented screening and purification estimates.

Update cadence

Portfolio holdings and purification estimates are published on dated pages; fee, entity, holdings, and supervisory evidence should be rechecked before funding.

Regulation / governance

Manzil states that Corex is registered as a Portfolio Manager across Canada and an Investment Fund Manager in selected provinces; the US route is offered through Manzil Investment Advisors, LLC.

Account or product boundary

Corex and Manzil Investment Advisors are different providers in different jurisdictions. Do not carry Canadian protection, pricing, or wrapper claims into the US route or vice versa.

Before you act: Choose the correct country entity, then verify the account wrapper, custodian, subscription fee, MER, holdings, purification, and withdrawal rules.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Manzil publishes AAOIFI-oriented portfolio language, supervisory-board oversight, current portfolio holdings, and purification responsibilities.

Manzil now publishes live Canadian and US managed-investing routes, explicit US pricing, Canadian account types, provider and custody boundaries, portfolio information, and purification guidance. The Canadian Corex and US Manzil Investment Advisors routes must be treated separately.

Strengths

  • Canadian and US managed routes
  • Broad Canadian account-wrapper support
  • Published purification and portfolio evidence

Limitations

  • Two country-specific legal structures
  • Canadian numeric pricing needs confirmation
  • Not a self-directed stock broker

US halal adviser and fund sponsor

Azzad Asset Management

Review pending

Why it sits here

A long-running US halal adviser with SEC registration disclosures, two proprietary mutual funds, separately managed accounts, and unusually visible multi-layer Shariah governance.

Bottom line: Best for US households that want full-service halal wealth management or Azzad mutual funds rather than an app-only workflow.

Azzad fills an important US gap because it combines adviser registration, managed portfolios, mutual funds, named Shariah governance, and current disclosure documents. It is a higher-touch wealth-management route, not a low-cost screening app.

Best for

US families seeking full-service halal wealth management, separately managed accounts, retirement planning, or established mutual funds.

Official scale / access

Azzad documents separately managed accounts plus two proprietary mutual funds: the Azzad Ethical Fund and Azzad Wise Capital Fund.

Pricing and fees

Current advisory and fund costs depend on the service, portfolio, and share class. Read Form CRS, Form ADV, the advisory agreement, and each fund prospectus; no single universal fee applies.

Method / structure

AAOIFI-based security filtering, proprietary screening software, a named Shariah advisory board, and an outside compliance officer support managed accounts and funds.

Update cadence

Azzad says holdings are screened and managed on an ongoing basis; exact fund holdings, verification letters, prospectuses, and fee disclosures carry their own dates.

Regulation / governance

Azzad states that it is an SEC-registered investment adviser and publishes its Shariah governance. Registration does not endorse its services or establish investment suitability.

Account or product boundary

Full-service advisory, separately managed accounts, and proprietary mutual funds have different minimums, fees, conflicts, liquidity, and tax implications.

Before you act: Compare the managed-account program with the mutual funds, then verify minimums, fee layers, conflicts, custodian, share class, and tax wrapper.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Azzad publishes AAOIFI-based screening, a named Shariah advisory board, an outside compliance officer, and purification governance.

Azzad publishes a substantial US evidence set for halal wealth management: SEC adviser disclosures, managed accounts, two proprietary mutual funds, AAOIFI-based screening, a named Shariah board, outside compliance oversight, holdings, and prospectuses. Program-specific costs and conflicts still require disclosure review.

Strengths

  • Operating history since 1997
  • Named multi-layer Shariah governance
  • Managed accounts and proprietary mutual funds

Limitations

  • Service-specific pricing is complex
  • US-focused
  • Proprietary-fund conflicts require disclosure review

US halal mutual fund and ETF provider

Saturna Amana Funds

Review pending

Why it sits here

The deepest established US fund-provider record in the comparison, combining four long-running mutual funds, three live 2026 equity ETFs, prospectuses, holdings, and quarterly Amanie review.

Bottom line: Best documented US halal mutual-fund family; compare every fund or ETF separately rather than buying the brand name.

Saturna/Amana is a major omission from a serious halal fund comparison. Its long-running mutual funds and new 2026 ETF range have stronger product documentation than most app-only entries, but every fund remains a separate investment decision.

Official scale / access

Saturna says its process screens more than 5,000 securities monthly, about 2,150 pass the Islamic screens, and a smaller recommended list receives deeper research.

Pricing and fees

The live 2026 equity ETFs list 0.61% for AMGR, 0.76% for AMEI, and 0.91% for AMEM. Mutual fund expenses and minimums differ by product and share class.

Method / structure

Active fundamental management under published Islamic business and financial screens, with quarterly review by Amanie Advisors.

Update cadence

Security screening is described as monthly and Shariah review as quarterly; holdings, prospectuses, certifications, and performance have product-specific dates.

Regulation / governance

Saturna Capital advises the Amana Mutual Funds Trust; the official halal-funds page names Amanie Advisors as the independent quarterly reviewer.

Account or product boundary

The provider offers mutual funds and ETFs, not one portfolio. Brokerage access, share class, retirement eligibility, tax, distribution policy, and product risk differ.

Before you act: Select the exact ticker or mutual-fund share class and verify the prospectus, expense ratio, minimum, holdings, distributions, tax treatment, and broker access.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Saturna publishes screening criteria, monthly research, quarterly Amanie Advisors review, holdings, prospectuses, and certifications.

Amana Funds has a strong product-level evidence base: official halal criteria, quarterly Amanie Advisors review, fund pages, fact sheets, and prospectuses. The review still needs to distinguish fund objective, risk, expense ratio, and tax treatment.

Strengths

  • Amana fund history since 1986
  • Quarterly independent Shariah review
  • Current holdings and prospectus library

Limitations

  • Products are not interchangeable
  • Active-fund fees can be higher
  • US product and account restrictions apply

US Shariah ETF family

SP Funds

Review pending

Why it sits here

The broadest dedicated US-listed Shariah ETF family in this comparison, with current cost, assets, holdings, spreads, indexes, and prospectus links at ticker level.

Bottom line: Best ETF-provider route for US broker users; choose the asset class first, then the ticker.

SP Funds is an issuer rather than a broker. It earns a platform-provider profile because it offers a distinct multi-product Shariah fund family; its five ETFs remain separate rows in the product matrix instead of five inflated platform ranks.

Official scale / access

The five ETF rows cover US equity, global sukuk, global Shariah REITs, global technology, and international equity; target-date mutual funds are additional products.

Pricing and fees

SPUS and SPWO list 0.45%; SPSK and SPRE list 0.50%; SPTE lists 0.55%. Brokerage commission, spread, tax, and account fees remain separate.

Method / structure

Index ETFs use named S&P or Dow Jones Shariah benchmarks and publish ticker-specific holdings and prospectuses.

Update cadence

Official ETF pages publish dated daily holdings/pricing and monthly performance; recheck live values because assets, holdings, yields, and spreads change.

Regulation / governance

Product pages and prospectuses govern each US-listed fund. Shariah methodology is fund/index-specific and does not remove market or principal-loss risk.

Account or product boundary

SP Funds issues funds and does not open the investor's brokerage account. Broker availability, wrapper, currency, tax, orders, cash, margin, and lending are separate.

Before you act: Compare ticker, asset class, index, concentration, holdings, spread, expense ratio, distribution policy, tax treatment, and broker availability.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

SP Funds publishes ticker-level methodology, holdings, performance, expense ratios, prospectuses, and summary prospectuses.

SP Funds provides product pages and prospectus links for Shariah-screened ETFs. The review should be ETF-specific: index, holdings, expense ratio, tracking, distributions, and risk are different for SPUS, SPSK, SPRE, SPTE, and SPWO.

Strengths

  • Five differentiated ETF routes
  • Current dated holdings and cost data
  • Equity, sukuk, REIT, and international coverage

Limitations

  • Requires a separate broker
  • US-listed product access varies
  • Sector and concentration risks differ sharply

MENA broker with embedded screening

amana

Review pending

Why it sits here

The most relevant MENA broker addition because it combines physical regional and US securities with an embedded Zoya-powered Shariah signal and publishes product-type fee boundaries.

Bottom line: Best MENA execution workflow with embedded screening, but only after separating physical investments from leveraged derivatives and interest features.

amana is a relevant MENA execution route because screening is embedded in the investing workflow. Its breadth is also the main risk: leveraged derivatives, free-margin interest, forex, and crypto coexist with physical investments, so the user must distinguish product types before every order.

Official scale / access

amana reports 500,000+ users, 6,800 assets, 2,100+ physical US shares, and 1,100+ MENA shares; these scale figures are provider-reported.

Pricing and fees

The official fee table lists no commission, overnight financing fee, or clearing fee for exchange-traded US stocks and ETFs. Regional exchange/clearing charges, FX, spreads, and entity terms can differ.

Method / structure

Zoya-powered Shariah indicators and certification details are embedded at asset level. The same app also offers leveraged, derivative, forex, and crypto products.

Update cadence

The provider describes screening as real-time; each asset status, certifier, symbol, ownership form, and product type should still be checked at order time.

Regulation / governance

amana publishes multiple regional regulatory claims and product disclosures. The legal entity serving the user and the exact exchange-traded or OTC instrument must be verified during onboarding.

Account or product boundary

Exchange-traded physical shares/ETFs and OTC derivatives are different products. Avoid treating a blue-moon label as approval of margin, free-margin interest, leverage, crypto, or the entire account.

Before you act: Use only the intended exchange-traded physical asset route and verify the symbol, ownership, leverage, financing, cash interest, entity, local eligibility, and fees.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

amana identifies selected assets with Zoya-powered Shariah screening; this is an asset-level signal, not certification of the entire broker or product menu.

amana is a relevant MENA broker route because it publishes physical US and regional securities access, a Zoya-powered Shariah identification layer, and a product-type fee table. Its wider app also contains interest, leverage, derivatives, forex, and crypto, so no platform-wide halal claim is made.

Strengths

  • Embedded Zoya screening
  • Physical US and MENA securities
  • Published exchange-traded versus derivative fee table

Limitations

  • Broader platform includes leveraged products
  • Not a blanket halal-certified broker
  • Country entity and product availability vary

Evidence sources and checks

Verify current fees, product scope, methodology, country eligibility, and support directly on the official site.

ADGM Islamic execution platform

Tabadulat

Review pending

Why it sits here

A source-complete UAE execution route with an Islamic Financial Institution permission, published fee schedule, AAOIFI ratios, monthly screening, purification data, and an independent Shariah opinion.

Bottom line: Best newly added halal-first execution route for eligible UAE and regional users who want screening and trading in one app.

Tabadulat is a material omission from a serious halal-broker comparison because its execution-only structure, pricing, regulator permission, screening thresholds, monthly refresh, and Shariah opinion are all publicly traceable. Most scale figures remain provider-reported and should not be mistaken for an independent audit.

Official scale / access

Tabadulat reports 40,000+ screened stocks and ETFs, 20+ markets, and 4,500+ investors. These are provider-reported scale claims, not independent measurements.

Pricing and fees

Eligible US stocks and halal ETFs carry 0% commission; trades below one whole share cost $0.94 and custody costs 0.25% annually. UAE residents also pay 5% VAT on those fees.

Method / structure

Execution-only matched-principal service using AAOIFI Standard No. 21: prohibited revenue below 5%, and interest-bearing debt and investments below 30% of market capitalization.

Update cadence

The provider says holdings are re-screened monthly and users receive a notification when a status changes; verify the timestamp shown for the asset in-app.

Regulation / governance

Terms dated March 24, 2026 identify Tabadulat Limited as an ADGM FSRA-regulated Islamic Financial Institution under permission 250032; the official site links a Shariyah Review Bureau opinion.

Account or product boundary

The account is self-directed and execution-only. Stocks, ETFs, fractional orders, custody, Murabaha savings, currency conversion, tax, and withdrawals have different structures and costs.

Before you act: Verify country eligibility, the instrument, fractional-trade charge, custody fee, currency conversion, tax, withdrawal terms, latest screen, and purification factor before trading.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Tabadulat publishes an AAOIFI Standard No. 21 method, named Shariah governance, an independent Shariyah Review Bureau opinion, and ADGM Islamic Financial Institution terms.

Tabadulat has a source-complete public record for its legal entity, ADGM Islamic Financial Institution permission, execution-only account structure, AAOIFI method, Shariah opinion, coverage claims, screening cadence, purification tool, and current fee schedule.

Strengths

  • ADGM-regulated Islamic execution-only route
  • Published AAOIFI method and independent opinion
  • Screening, trading, purification, and cash tools in one app

Limitations

  • Custody and fractional-trade fees still apply
  • Access depends on jurisdiction
  • Company-reported coverage and usage figures are not independently audited

Evidence sources and checks

Halal broker and screener

Hyssa

Review pending

Why it sits here

A credible emerging halal broker because its legal entity, Mauritius license, AAOIFI thresholds, named Shariah board, and platform-wide May 2025 pronouncement are publicly documented.

Bottom line: Best newly added all-in-one emerging platform; verify numeric fees and country eligibility inside the app before funding.

Hyssa qualifies as more than a directory mention because official pages identify the licensed entity, screening ratios, scholar oversight, transaction blocking, and certificate. Its biggest evidence gap is numeric public pricing, so HalalInvestGuide does not repeat the broad 'no hidden fees' claim as a complete cost answer.

Official scale / access

Official pages describe thousands of screened global stocks but do not publish a stable numeric universe total in the reviewed pages.

Pricing and fees

A complete public numeric commission, custody, FX, and withdrawal schedule was not verified. Official help shows commissions in trade history and broker charges in withdrawal confirmation screens.

Method / structure

AAOIFI-oriented two-stage screen: prohibited revenue under 5%; prohibited borrowing and investments each below 30% of trailing average market capitalization.

Update cadence

Hyssa advertises real-time status monitoring and transaction blocking; the precise financial-statement ingestion cadence was not independently verified.

Regulation / governance

Hyssa Financial Technologies Mauritius states FSC license GB24202823. The May 2025 pronouncement reviews screening, trading, fees, purification, and documents while assigning implementation responsibility to Hyssa.

Account or product boundary

Trading is provided through the relevant Hyssa entity after KYC. Country restrictions, custody, cash, commissions, withdrawals, ownership, settlement, tax, and currency treatment still need account-level review.

Before you act: Confirm that your legal entity and country are supported, then verify the full fee schedule, custody, cash treatment, ownership and settlement, withdrawal limits, and current Shariah certificate.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Hyssa publishes AAOIFI thresholds, named Shariah board members, and a May 2025 pronouncement covering its screening, trading mechanism, fees, purification, and documents.

Hyssa publishes a legal-entity and regulator disclosure, named Shariah board, quantitative AAOIFI screens, direct trading workflow, and a platform pronouncement. The evidence is reduced to moderate because a complete numeric public fee schedule and independently verified operating scale were not found.

Strengths

  • Built-in AAOIFI screening and execution
  • Published Shariah board and certificate
  • Purification, zakat, and compliance monitoring tools

Limitations

  • Full numeric public pricing not verified
  • Country and sanctions restrictions apply
  • Provider claims about live monitoring require in-app confirmation

Halal fund portfolio builder

Amal Invest

Review pending

Why it sits here

A genuinely different portfolio-building route that filters conventional fund holdings into direct-stock baskets, with published subscription prices, broker boundaries, and Amanah Advisors review.

Bottom line: Best for investors who want a filtered version of a familiar fund and accept tracking, tax, rebalancing, subscription, and connected-broker complexity.

Amal Invest is neither an ETF nor a broker. It reconstructs a selected fund as a basket of filtered direct stock positions and automates monitoring and rebalancing through another execution venue. That structure is genuinely different and useful, but it creates tracking error, tax, broker, and user-override questions that a simple 'halal fund' label would hide.

Best for

Long-term investors who want to filter conventional funds into direct-stock portfolios and automate monitoring and rebalancing through a connected execution route.

Official scale / access

The provider says Pro can filter 100,000+ ETFs and mutual funds; the main route advertises 10,000+ users. Both figures are company-reported.

Pricing and fees

The main site lists Standard at $19.99/month and Pro at $39.99/month. Separate Pro lifetime and Trading 212 campaign offers exist, so buyers must match the price to the exact route.

Method / structure

The selected fund is decomposed, non-compliant holdings are removed using licensed Zoya data, and many direct-stock orders are placed to approximate the parent fund.

Update cadence

The provider describes continuous compliance monitoring and automated rebalancing. Users should verify the actual notification, sale, delay, and tax behavior of their selected integration.

Regulation / governance

Amal publishes an Amanah Advisors platform-review claim and identifies its data source. The separate broker, user overrides, portfolio construction, and current certificate remain part of the review boundary.

Account or product boundary

Amal says it is not a brokerage service. Alpaca Securities or Trading 212 executes the investments depending on the route, while user whitelist settings can override default compliance filters.

Before you act: Identify the exact Amal route, connected broker, account country, subscription, portfolio constituents, user whitelist settings, rebalancing taxes, trade execution, and latest certificate.

Shariah evidence and boundary

Evidence review pending

Amal says its platform was reviewed by Amanah Advisors and that it licenses Zoya compliance data, while allowing user-controlled filters that can change the resulting portfolio.

Amal Invest publishes a distinctive portfolio-reconstruction workflow, main-plan pricing, connected-broker boundaries, Zoya data sourcing, Amanah Advisors review, and automated monitoring claims. Multiple pricing and integration routes make product matching essential.

Strengths

  • Distinct fund-filtering and portfolio-reconstruction workflow
  • Published subscription pricing
  • Continuous compliance and rebalancing tools

Limitations

  • Not itself a brokerage service
  • Several pricing and integration routes can be confusing
  • Tracking error, tax lots, user overrides, and broker settings need review

Edition and change record

Evidence edition 1.2 · Aug. 30, 2026

  • • Expanded the stock-platform record to 20 brokers, screeners, managed routes, research services, and providers.
  • • Moved ETF product discovery and fund-level evidence to the dedicated ETF directory.

  • • Added ShariaPortfolio, Manzil, Azzad, Saturna/Amana, SP Funds, amana, Tabadulat, Hyssa, and Amal Invest with official evidence.
  • • Removed the opaque universal HalalInvestGuide score from the decision surface.
  • • Corrected Wealthsimple from pending to current moderate evidence after finding its 2026 halal-portfolio MER documentation.

The next review is triggered by a price, methodology, regulatory-entity, eligibility, ETF-holdings, or product-status change—not only by a calendar date.

Cost translated into money

What the published fee can mean on $10,000

These examples make the arithmetic visible; they are not a like-for-like price league. Screeners sell research, managed services charge for portfolio management, and an ETF TER is an internal fund cost. Currency, tax, trading activity, spreads, and changing balances can make the actual total different.

Decision guide

How to choose a halal stock or ETF platform

The asset can pass a screen while the account still enables features you do not want. Treat asset screening, broker-account screening, ETF due diligence, fees, and country eligibility as separate decisions.

Platform typeWhat it can doWhat it cannot prove by itself
BrokerOpens the account and executes tradesWhether each asset and account feature is Shariah-suitable
ScreenerApplies a named methodology to stocks or fundsBroker access, tax fit, order execution, or final religious advice
Managed portfolioBuilds and maintains a portfolio for the accountWhether every regional product, fee layer, or holding fits every investor
Research serviceProvides analysis, ideas, data, or model portfoliosTrade execution, personal suitability, or guaranteed performance
ETF productPackages a portfolio under an index or fund methodologyBroker access, listing fit, tax treatment, or account settings

Five checks before you fund or buy

  1. 01

    Choose the job

    Decide whether you need screening, execution, a managed portfolio, professional data, or an ETF product.

  2. 02

    Verify the evidence

    Read the named methodology, current product documents, holdings, certifier or Shariah oversight, and update date.

  3. 03

    Check your country

    Confirm the legal entity, account eligibility, supported market, currency, tax documents, funding, and withdrawals.

  4. 04

    Audit the account

    Review margin, idle cash, stock lending, short selling, derivatives, permissions, and default settings before funding.

  5. 05

    Add every cost

    Combine subscription, advisory, commission, spread, FX, ETF expense ratio, data, and withdrawal costs.

Account settings to check before funding

  • Whether margin borrowing or short selling is enabled
  • Whether idle cash earns interest or enters a cash sweep
  • Whether securities lending or a yield-enhancement program is active
  • Which legal entity holds the account and what protections apply
  • Which instruments, order types, and derivatives permissions are enabled

Fees that matter for halal stock and ETF investors

  • Trading commission, bid-ask spread, and market-data charges
  • Screener subscription or managed-portfolio advisory fee
  • ETF expense ratio, tracking difference, and fund transaction costs
  • Foreign-exchange, deposit, withdrawal, inactivity, and transfer fees
  • Any cost associated with margin, cash interest, lending, or account services

How HalalInvestGuide reviews Shariah evidence

HalalInvestGuide prioritizes official methodology pages, named Shariah boards or certifiers, prospectuses, holdings, product disclosures, regulator records, and dated pricing or eligibility pages. Marketing labels are recorded as claims until source evidence supports them. When a source is incomplete or no longer resolves, the page says so.

Common questions

Best halal stock platforms FAQ

What is the best halal stock platform overall?

There is no honest single winner across unlike products. Based on the official evidence reviewed, Wahed is the clearest general managed route, Musaffa is the deepest broad-coverage screener, Zoya is the easiest free first pass, Interactive Brokers offers broad global execution after separate screening, SP Funds offers the broadest dedicated US-listed halal ETF family here, and Saturna/Amana has the deepest established US halal mutual-fund record.

What is the difference between a halal stock broker and a halal stock screener?

A broker opens and operates the account used to buy or hold securities. A screener applies a Shariah methodology to stocks or funds. A broker does not automatically screen every investment, and a screener usually does not execute the trade.

Can I buy a halal ETF directly from a screening app?

Usually not. A screening app can help research an ETF, while a compatible broker provides access to the exchange and share class. Confirm the ticker, listing, currency, holdings, expense ratio, distributions, and local eligibility before buying.

Is a free halal stock screener enough?

It can answer a first-pass status question, but not the whole decision. Zoya's free plan provides compliance status and a watchlist of up to 200, while full reports and broader methodology comparison require Pro. Investors still need current company financials, a compatible broker, account-setting checks, and product-level evidence.

Which fees matter for halal stock and ETF investors?

Compare like with like: a screener subscription, managed-account fee, broker commission, and ETF expense ratio pay for different jobs. Then add spreads, foreign exchange, underlying-fund costs, market data, transfers, withdrawals, and any margin or cash-related charges. For example, Sarwa publishes 0.85% management, Musaffa Premium $200 per year, and ISWD a 0.30% TER, but those numbers are not substitutes for one another.

Why does country availability matter?

Country and legal-entity rules change who can open an account, investor protection, fees, currencies, tax documents, funding, and product access. Wahed publishes separate U.S. and UK terms, Sarwa excludes U.S. persons for the reviewed route, and an ETF listing can be available through one broker but unavailable through another.

Are all platforms in this comparison Shariah-certified?

No. This page compares halal-first services, screening tools, conventional brokers, managed portfolios, fund providers, and institutional research. ETF products are shown in a separate matrix. Each row states the evidence boundary; inclusion is not a blanket certification or fatwa.

Do these platforms calculate dividend purification?

Some screening services provide purification data or tools, while brokers may not. Check which methodology is used, how impure income is estimated, the update frequency, and whether the calculation covers the security and reporting period you own.

What should I check about idle cash interest?

Review whether uninvested cash earns interest automatically, whether interest can be disabled, how cash sweeps work, and which account entity holds the balance. Do not assume that buying a screened stock makes every cash feature suitable.

What should I check about stock lending and margin?

Confirm whether margin borrowing, short selling, securities lending, yield-enhancement programs, and options permissions are enabled by default or optional. These are account-level features and must be reviewed separately from the Shariah status of a stock or ETF.
