Is Cargojet (CJT) stock Halal?
Cargojet, Inc. (CJT) is not Shariah compliant in the September 2026 AAOIFI screening: it fails the interest-bearing debt screen. Tabadulat re-screens CJT monthly, and a stock can return to compliance when new financial reports change its ratios.
Cargojet is a leading provider of air cargo transportation services, specializing in time-sensitive overnight delivery across Canada and key international markets. As a dedicated cargo airline, its core function is to operate an extensive domestic air cargo network linking sixteen Canadian cities, ensuring rapid and reliable logistics solutions for businesses and organizations requiring urgent shipment of goods. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Cargojet stock Halal?
Is Cargojet Shariah compliant?
Industrial businesses like Cargojet usually pass the activity screen without drama. The harder test is financial: heavy assets mean heavy financing, and AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 tolerates interest bearing debt and investments only below 30% of market capitalisation, ratios that shift with every move in the share price.
Does Cargojet pass the business activity test?
The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: Cargojet currently fails the interest-bearing debt screen, so the overall verdict is not compliant regardless of the business itself. The activity itself raises no Shariah objection; the scrutiny belongs to the financing.
Is Cargojet's income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Cargojet's income from non-permissible sources stays below 5% of revenue in the September 2026 screening.
Does Cargojet meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?
Not in full. Interest bearing debt currently exceeds the 30% cap, while the other ratio stays within it. One breach is enough to fail the screening; the ratios are reassessed monthly under our Shariah Supervisory Board.
