Is Motorsport Games (MSGM) 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. Motorsport Games, Inc. (MSGM) does not meet the threshold for the interest-bearing investments screen as of September 2026, so it is not Shariah compliant.
Motorsport Games is a leading gaming and esports company specializing in the development and publishing of motorsport-themed content. The primary function of Motorsport Games is to deliver immersive virtual racing experiences through both its gaming offerings and organized competitive esports events. Catering to a diverse fan base, the company owns and operates platforms that simulate real-world racing environments, featuring popular franchises such as NASCAR and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. For Muslim investors, though, the most pressing question is simpler: is Motorsport Games a Halal investment?
Is Motorsport Games Shariah compliant?
Technology companies rarely fail AAOIFI screening on what they sell. Software, hardware and digital services are permissible business activities, so for a company like Motorsport Games the Shariah question moves to the balance sheet: how much of its market value sits in interest bearing debt, how much of its cash earns Riba in conventional deposits, and whether incidental income from impermissible sources creeps past 5% of revenue. These are exactly the ratios AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 polices, and they move every month with the share price.
Does Motorsport Games pass the business activity test?
The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: Motorsport Games currently fails the interest-bearing investments screen, so the overall verdict is not compliant regardless of the business itself. 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 Motorsport Games' income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Motorsport Games' income from non-permissible sources stays below 5% of revenue in the September 2026 screening.
Does Motorsport Games meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?
Not in full. Interest bearing investments currently exceed the 30% cap, while the other ratio stays within it. One breach is enough to fail the screening; the ratios are reassessed monthly under our Shariah Supervisory Board.
