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 Ethical ReadWhy It Falls Short, in Plain English
Meituan's business is in a permissible area, but its interest-bearing debt is about 140% of the company, well over the ~33% line, so it does not pass on the financial screens.
