Is Donaldson (DCI) stock Halal?
As of the September 2026 screening, Donaldson Co., Inc. (DCI) meets every AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 requirement: non-permissible income, interest-bearing investments and interest-bearing debt all sit within the thresholds, and there is no impermissible preference share structure. The dividend purification factor is 98.15%. The stock is re-screened every month.
Donaldson is a leading provider within the diversified industrial manufacturing sector, specializing in filtration systems and replacement parts. Its product offerings are widely used across various industries, including aerospace, agriculture, construction, mining, and transportation, emphasizing its crucial role in promoting operational efficiency and reliability in diverse settings. The company’s extensive portfolio includes air and liquid filtration systems, offering both standard and customized solutions to meet the specific needs of its clientele. For Muslim investors, though, the most pressing question is simpler: is Donaldson a Halal investment?
Is Donaldson Shariah compliant?
For industrial companies like Donaldson, the product is rarely the problem; aircraft, vehicles and machinery are permissible. The exposure is leverage: fleets and factories are financed, and the 30% cap that AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 places on interest bearing debt is the screen that decides most verdicts in this sector.
Does Donaldson pass the business activity test?
Yes. In the September 2026 screening Donaldson holds an overall PASS, which a stock only earns when its core business clears the activity screen. The activity itself raises no Shariah objection; the scrutiny belongs to the financing.
Is Donaldson's income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Donaldson's income from non-permissible sources stays below 5% of revenue in the September 2026 screening, and the small impure portion is handled through purification: the factor of 98.15% tells holders of DCI what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity.
Does Donaldson 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 DCI re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
