META

Meta Platforms, Inc.
Questionable · 42/100
Data as of 2026-01-29

Price

Shariah compliance

Meta Platforms, Inc. is questionable — not because of its finances, but because of what it sells.

It clears the financial screens: debt vs. market cap is 3.55% against a 33% limit, and interest income vs. revenue is 1.06% against a 5% limit. Nothing in the arithmetic is close to a threshold.

Flagged questionable by first-party editorial review: Curated gray-area review: advertising platform whose inventory includes impermissible promotion (e.g. alcohol, gambling); ad revenue not separable from filings. Passes our quantitative screen but downgraded to 'questionable'. Reasonable people may disagree, which is why it is labelled rather than folded silently into the score.

Controversies

Separate from the shariah verdict above — always.

No flags. This company isn't on the BNC (Boycott National Committee) priority or divestment lists, or any grassroots BDS-supported campaign we line.
