Question 1

Is Carnival Plc CUK stock halal to invest in?

Accepted Answer

No. As of February 2026, Carnival (CUK) does not pass AAOIFI Shariah screening because non-permissible income and interest-bearing debt exceed 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.

Question 2

How often is Carnival Plc CUK reviewed for Shariah compliance?

Accepted Answer

Tabadulat re-screens Carnival (CUK) 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.

Question 3

Does Carnival Plc CUK pass the AAOIFI Non Permissible Income criteria?

Accepted Answer

No. In the February 2026 screening, Carnival'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.

Question 4

Does Carnival Plc CUK pass the AAOIFI Interest Bearing Investments criteria?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Carnival'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.

Question 5

Does STOCK  pass the AAOIFI Interest Bearing Debt criteria?

Accepted Answer

No. In the February 2026 screening, Carnival's interest-bearing debt is above AAOIFI's 30% market-capitalisation cap, so this screen currently fails. Market capitalisation changes daily, so the ratio can improve or worsen without new borrowing. We re-screen every month, and the status can change.

Question 6

How can I check the latest Shariah compliance status of Carnival Plc stock?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 7

Can the Shariah compliance status of Carnival Plc stock change?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Carnival 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.
