Medtronic is a leading global healthcare technology company that designs, manufactures, and sells innovative medical devices and therapies used in various medical procedures. The primary function of Medtronic is to improve healthcare outcomes by providing advanced therapeutic solutions. Its extensive product portfolio includes cardiac and vascular devices, diabetes-related products, minimally invasive therapies, and neurosurgical technologies. Medtronic plays a vital role in the medical device industry, catering to cardiovascular treatment, advanced diabetes management, spinal and musculoskeletal therapy, and more. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Medtronic stock Halal?
Is Medtronic Shariah compliant?
Healthcare rarely troubles the activity screen; treating illness is permissible work. For Medtronic, the AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 verdict turns on the balance sheet instead: research is capital hungry, and interest bearing debt and investments must each stay below 30% of market capitalisation.
Does Medtronic pass the business activity test?
Yes. In the September 2026 screening Medtronic 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 Medtronic's income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Medtronic'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 98.48% tells holders of MDT what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity.
Does Medtronic 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 MDT re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
