Is Motorola Solutions (MSI) stock Halal?
September 2026 AAOIFI screening result for Motorola Solutions, Inc. (MSI): non-permissible income, pass. Interest-bearing investments, pass. Interest-bearing debt, pass. Preference shares, pass. Dividend purification factor: 99.81%. Re-screened monthly against AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21.
Motorola Solutions is a leading provider of mission-critical communications equipment and software, specializing in products and services that enable public safety agencies, government organizations, and enterprises to operate securely and efficiently. As a prominent member of the communications and networking sector, the company develops and supplies two-way radios, integrated command center systems, video security solutions, and analytics platforms. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Motorola Solutions stock Halal?
Is Motorola Solutions Shariah compliant?
The Shariah case on a technology company like Motorola Solutions is rarely about the product. What AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 examines is the money around the product: cash parked in instruments that earn Riba, borrowing measured against a market capitalisation that moves daily, and any incidental income from sources Islam prohibits, which must stay below 5% of revenue.
Does Motorola Solutions pass the business activity test?
Yes. In the September 2026 screening Motorola Solutions holds an overall PASS, which a stock only earns when its core business clears the activity screen. The watch item for technology names is incidental: cash returns and platform content can carry impermissible elements, which AAOIFI tolerates only below the thresholds.
Is Motorola Solutions' income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Motorola Solutions' 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 99.81% tells holders of MSI what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity.
Does Motorola Solutions 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 MSI re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
