Is Illumina (ILMN) stock Halal?
As of the September 2026 screening, Illumina, Inc. (ILMN) 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 99.34%. The stock is re-screened every month.
Illumina operates as a global leader in the life sciences industry, focusing on the development and manufacturing of integrated systems for the analysis of genetic variation and function. Primarily, Illumina’s products and services are pivotal in advancing genomic research, enabling scientists to explore DNA sequencing and genetic mapping with high precision and efficiency. The company’s solutions are extensively utilized in fields such as oncology, reproductive health, and genetic disease diagnostics. For Muslim investors, though, the most pressing question is simpler: is Illumina a Halal investment?
Is Illumina Shariah compliant?
Medicines and medical devices are permissible, and healthcare companies like Illumina usually clear the activity screen comfortably. What AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 watches is the financing behind the pipeline: drug development is expensive, and the 30% interest bearing debt cap decides the verdict more often than the science does.
Does Illumina pass the business activity test?
Yes. In the September 2026 screening Illumina holds an overall PASS, which a stock only earns when its core business clears the activity screen. Treating illness is permissible work; the scrutiny belongs to the financing behind it.
Is Illumina's income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Illumina'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 99.34% tells holders of ILMN what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity.
Does Illumina 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 ILMN re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
