Is Qualys (QLYS) stock Halal?
September 2026 AAOIFI screening result for Qualys, Inc. (QLYS): non-permissible income, pass. Interest-bearing investments, pass. Interest-bearing debt, pass. Preference shares, pass. Dividend purification factor: 96.71%. Re-screened monthly against AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21.
Qualys is a cybersecurity software company that delivers a cloud-based platform for vulnerability management, IT asset visibility, and regulatory compliance. Its Enterprise TruRisk Platform and integrated applications help organizations identify and inventory IT and operational technology assets, continuously assess vulnerabilities, prioritize remediation, and verify fixes across on‑premises, cloud, and containerized environments. Core offerings span vulnerability management, detection and response, web application scanning, patch management, endpoint detection and response, policy compliance, file integrity monitoring, and cloud security posture management. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Qualys stock Halal?
Is Qualys Shariah compliant?
The Shariah case on a technology company like Qualys 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 Qualys pass the business activity test?
Yes. In the September 2026 screening Qualys 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 Qualys' income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Qualys' 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 96.71% tells holders of QLYS what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity.
Does Qualys 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 QLYS re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
