Details
From the project READMEBarakah Halal Stock Screen — MCP server
Ask your AI assistant whether a stock is halal, and get a dated answer.
A hosted Model Context Protocol server from Barakah Profits. It screens listed companies for Sharia compliance and, unlike most screeners, tells you when the verdict last changed — from a public, dated verdict ledger.
Nothing to install, no API key.

Tools
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
check_halal_stock | Screens one US-listed ticker (e.g. NVDA, AAPL): business activity, interest-bearing debt and cash vs market cap, interest income vs revenue. Returns the verdict, each check with its ratio, and the verdict's change history. |
recent_halal_verdict_changes | Stocks that recently cleared or broke the screen, with dates. |
Coverage: US-listed stocks.
Verdicts: PASSES FINANCIAL SCREEN, NEEDS REVIEW, NOT HALAL.

Method
AAOIFI-style screen:
- Business activity — core business must not be interest-based finance, alcohol, tobacco, gambling, pork, adult content or weapons.
- Interest-bearing debt under 30% of market cap.
- Cash and interest-bearing securities under 30% of market cap.
- Interest income under 5% of revenue.
"Passes financial screen" is deliberately not "halal": revenue from minor non-compliant business lines isn't itemised in filings data, so confirm the revenue mix before investing. Because the debt and cash tests are measured against market cap, a company can cross the line on share price alone — which is why the verdict history matters.
This is an automated estimate, not a fatwa, and not financial advice.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
