Five checks adapted from AAOIFI screening standards: business activity plus four balance-sheet ratios. All five must pass for ethical clearance. Every figure is arithmetic on public accounts, not judgement.
The Conscience OverlayThe quantitative screen above is arithmetic. Separately, community boycott lists cite this company: Documented on Don’t Buy Into Occupation — category: Corporate Complicity Report / Annex 2 Company List. The desk records that flag here without folding it into the verdict: the screen measures the balance sheet, the overlay informs the conscience, and they are different judgements that belong to different owners. The second one is yours.
