Is Hongli (HLP) stock Halal?
Under AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21, a Halal stock keeps non-permissible income below 5% of revenue and interest-bearing debt and investments each below 30% of market capitalisation. Hongli Group, Inc. (HLP) passes all four screens as of September 2026, with a dividend purification factor of 100%.
Hongli specializes in developing and manufacturing industrial equipment components. Its primary function is to supply essential parts that facilitate various industrial applications, contributing significantly to the industrial sector. The company’s product portfolio encompasses items like steel pipes and metalwork used in construction, automotive, and heavy machinery sectors. Hongli Group Inc.'s expertise lies in precision manufacturing and the reliable delivery of high-quality industrial materials, ensuring safety and efficiency in industrial operations. For Muslim investors, though, the most pressing question is simpler: is Hongli a Halal investment?
Is Hongli Shariah compliant?
Extracting and selling oil, gas or materials is a permissible business, so companies like Hongli rarely stumble on the activity screen. The pressure point is capital structure: energy is a capital hungry industry that borrows heavily, and AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 caps interest bearing debt at 30% of market capitalisation, a line that moves as commodity cycles move the share price.
Does Hongli pass the business activity test?
Yes. In the September 2026 screening Hongli holds an overall PASS, which a stock only earns when its core business clears the activity screen. The activity itself, extracting and selling resources, raises no Shariah objection; the scrutiny belongs to the financing.
Is Hongli's income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Hongli'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 100% tells holders of HLP what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity.
Does Hongli 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 HLP re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
