Is Masco (MAS) stock Halal?
September 2026 AAOIFI screening result for Masco Corp. (MAS): non-permissible income, pass. Interest-bearing investments, pass. Interest-bearing debt, pass. Preference shares, pass. Dividend purification factor: 100%. Re-screened monthly against AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21.
Masco is a prominent player in the manufacturing and distribution of home improvement and building products. The company’s primary focus is on developing a diverse range of products that enhance both the aesthetics and functionality of homes. This includes cabinetry, plumbing products, decorative architectural products, and other construction hardware. Notably, Masco serves a wide spectrum of markets, largely impacting the residential and construction sectors. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Masco stock Halal?
Is Masco Shariah compliant?
Industrial businesses like Masco usually pass the activity screen without drama. The harder test is financial: heavy assets mean heavy financing, and AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 tolerates interest bearing debt and investments only below 30% of market capitalisation, ratios that shift with every move in the share price.
Does Masco pass the business activity test?
Yes. In the September 2026 screening Masco 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 Masco's income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Masco'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 MAS what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity.
Does Masco 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 MAS re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
