Is Donegal (DGICB) stock Halal?
September 2026 AAOIFI screening result for Donegal Group, Inc. (DGICB): non-permissible income, fail. Interest-bearing investments, pass. Interest-bearing debt, pass. Preference shares, pass. Donegal Group, Inc. is not currently Shariah compliant. Re-screened monthly against AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21.
Donegal operates as a regional insurance holding company in the United States. The company’s key function is to offer property and casualty insurance to individuals and small businesses. Notable features include providing auto, homeowners, and commercial insurance policies, aiming to meet diverse market demands through tailored insurance solutions. Donegal Group impacts sectors such as automotive, real estate, and small businesses by providing essential risk management tools and financial safeguard services. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Donegal stock Halal?
Is Donegal Shariah compliant?
In financial services the activity screen carries the verdict more often than anywhere else: AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 draws a hard line between fee based, permissible services and earning Riba as a business model. For Donegal, that distinction comes first, with the debt and investment ratios behind it.
Does Donegal pass the business activity test?
The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: Donegal currently fails the non-permissible income screen, so the overall verdict is not compliant regardless of the business itself. The watch item in this sector is the sharpest of all: revenue must come from permissible services, not from lending at interest.
Is Donegal's income Halal?
No. Donegal'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 Donegal 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 DGICB re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
