DOUBTFUL — SCREEN DOES NOT PASSstock

Is CLSK Halal?

Bitcoin mining — energy-efficient operations.

What You Should Know

CleanSpark operates sustainable Bitcoin mining. Some scholars accept. Its March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q reports $2,913.501 million of assets, $1,790.681 million of interest-bearing debt, $260.287 million of cash and $136.408 million of quarterly bitcoin-mining revenue. Debt/assets is 61.46%, so the examined FTSE, MSCI and Malaysia debt limits fail alongside the retained speculation concern.

⚠️ Concerns

  • Speculation element
  • High debt/assets
  • Mining energy use

A properly licensed and reproducible historical market-cap series is not stored; market-cap methods cannot cure the debt or activity failure.

Business-activity disclosure

CleanSpark operates bitcoin mining and is expanding data-center infrastructure. The retained qualitative review treats the bitcoin-mining core as a material speculation concern, while scholars differ on digital-asset permissibility.

Limitation: The filing identifies bitcoin-mining revenue but does not supply a school-neutral prohibited-revenue taxonomy; the revenue proxy is deliberately conservative.

Purification

CleanSpark discloses $3.072 million of interest income, but no scholar-approved purification percentage is asserted for digital-asset activity.

Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
  • Amounts are USD millions from CleanSpark's March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q.
  • Interest-bearing debt is $2.485 million current debt plus $1,788.196 million long-term debt, net of discounts and issuance costs.
  • Cash is $260.287 million; the filing presents no separate accounts-receivable balance; quarterly bitcoin-mining revenue is $136.408 million.
  • The full disclosed quarterly revenue is used as a conservative activity proxy because bitcoin mining is the reported revenue stream; this is not a claim that every crypto-related activity is universally prohibited.
  • Disclosed interest income is $3.072 million, or 2.25% of quarterly revenue.

This is a reproducible financial screen, not a fatwa. A failed total-assets screen can coexist with a pass under a market-cap methodology. ZakatInvest keeps the qualitative assessment separate so numerical thresholds do not erase material context.
