The numbers behind the verdict

Interest-bearing debt / market cap: 11.3%
Cash + securities / market cap: 3.6%
Receivables / market cap: 3.2%
Impermissible income / revenue: 0.7%
Illiquid (tangible) assets / total: 14.0%

Thresholds and methodology differ by scholar — e.g. AAOIFI caps interest-bearing debt at 30% of market cap, DJIM at 33%, and Mufti Taqi additionally requires tangible assets to be at least 20% of total assets. That's why two screeners can disagree on the same stock.
