Is Ambev SA ABEV stock halal to invest in?

No. As of February 2026, Ambev (ABEV) does not pass AAOIFI Shariah screening because non-permissible income exceeds the permitted limits. AAOIFI Standard No. 21 caps non-permissible income at 5% of revenue, and interest-bearing debt and investments at 30% of market capitalisation each. We re-screen monthly, so the status can change. Check the live verdict in the Tabadulat app.

How often is Ambev SA ABEV reviewed for Shariah compliance?

Tabadulat re-screens Ambev (ABEV) every month. Each review applies AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 to the latest financial data: business activity, non-permissible income, interest-bearing investments and debt, and preference shares. Our Shariah Supervisory Board oversees the process. Ratios move with the market, so a verdict can change. App users are alerted if a holding turns non-compliant.

Does Ambev SA ABEV pass the AAOIFI Non Permissible Income criteria?

No. In the February 2026 screening, Ambev's income from non-permissible sources is above AAOIFI's 5% revenue ceiling, so this screen currently fails. The screen covers interest, conventional finance, alcohol, gambling and tobacco. We re-check it every month, and the result can change with new financial reports.

Does Ambev SA ABEV pass the AAOIFI Interest Bearing Investments criteria?

Yes. Ambev's interest-bearing investments stay below 30% of market capitalisation in the February 2026 screening, inside the AAOIFI limit. This covers conventional deposits, bonds and money-market instruments. The ratio is measured against market capitalisation, so it moves with the share price. That is why we re-screen every month.

Does STOCK pass the AAOIFI Interest Bearing Debt criteria?

Yes. Ambev's interest-bearing debt stays below 30% of market capitalisation in the February 2026 screening, inside the AAOIFI limit. The cap limits shareholders' exposure to interest-based leverage. Because market capitalisation changes daily, the ratio can drift without any new borrowing. We re-screen every month.

How can I check the latest Shariah compliance status of Ambev SA stock?

No purification factor applies to Ambev (ABEV) right now. Factors are published only for stocks that pass AAOIFI screening, and ABEV currently does not. Purification (Tazkiyah) means donating the small impure share of dividend income to charity. If ABEV returns to compliance in a monthly review, its factor is published again.

Can the Shariah compliance status of Ambev SA stock change?

Yes. Ambev has no impermissible preference share structure, so it passes this AAOIFI screen as of February 2026. Preference shares promise holders fixed or priority dividends ahead of ordinary shareholders. That conflicts with the Shariah principle of sharing profit and loss in proportion to ownership. The screen is verified in every monthly review.

Screening history:

Ambev S.A. is a prominent beverage company headquartered in São Paulo, Brazil, engaged primarily in the production and distribution of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. The company's portfolio includes a diverse array of products such as beers, soft drinks, and bottled water. Notably, Ambev is renowned for its beer brands, which include popular names like Brahma, Skol, Antarctica, and Bohemia, establishing a significant presence in the Latin American market. For Muslim investors, though, the most pressing question is simpler: is Ambev a Halal investment?

Is Ambev Shariah compliant?

Food, household goods and everyday retail are permissible activities, with one watch item: incidental revenue from alcohol, tobacco or conventional financial services must stay below the 5% ceiling of AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21. For Ambev, that is usually the screen worth reading first.

Does Ambev pass the business activity test?

The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: Ambev currently fails the non-permissible income screen, so the overall verdict is not compliant regardless of the business itself. The watch item is the product mix: any alcohol, tobacco or similar lines count against the 5% ceiling.

Is Ambev's income Halal?

No. Ambev's income from impermissible sources currently exceeds AAOIFI's 5% revenue ceiling, which makes the stock non-compliant on this screen regardless of the others. The screen is reassessed monthly, so the status can change when new financial statements arrive.

Does Ambev meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?

Yes. Both caps hold this month: interest bearing investments and interest bearing debt each stay below 30% of market capitalisation. Because the caps move with the share price, our Shariah Supervisory Board has ABEV re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
