Is Hain Celestial (HAIN) stock Halal?
As of the September 2026 screening, The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. (HAIN) does not meet the AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 threshold for the interest-bearing investments and interest-bearing debt screens, so the stock is not currently classified as Shariah compliant. It is re-screened every month and can regain compliance if its financial structure changes.
Hain Celestial is a leading food and personal care products company specializing in natural, organic, and 'better-for-you' consumer products. The company's primary function is to develop, manufacture, and distribute a wide range of products that promote health and wellness. These products span multiple categories, including snacks, plant-based beverages, tea, personal care items, and baby food, addressing the growing consumer demand for healthier lifestyle choices. For Muslim investors, though, the most pressing question is simpler: is Hain Celestial a Halal investment?
Is Hain Celestial 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 Hain Celestial, that is usually the screen worth reading first.
Does Hain Celestial pass the business activity test?
The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: Hain Celestial currently fails the interest-bearing investments and interest-bearing debt screens, 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 Hain Celestial's income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Hain Celestial's income from non-permissible sources stays below 5% of revenue in the September 2026 screening.
Does Hain Celestial meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?
No. Both ratios currently breach the 30% caps: interest bearing investments and interest bearing debt each exceed the limit AAOIFI permits for a Halal investment. The ratios move with the share price as well as the balance sheet, and our Shariah Supervisory Board has HAIN re-screened every month.
