Is CMCSA Halal?
Cable and media conglomerate with significant haram revenue streams.
What You Should Know
Comcast owns NBCUniversal, cable networks, and theme parks. Generates substantial revenue from adult content channels, casino partnerships, and alcohol sales at venues.

Debt/assets is 36.39%, liquidity/assets is 3.64%, and receivables-plus-cash/assets is 9.06%; the filing does not separately disclose interest income, so the FTSE income test remains unavailable.

Business-activity disclosure
Comcast operates connectivity, media, studios, streaming, advertising and theme-park businesses. The business perimeter includes clearly permissible services alongside media, gambling-adjacent, alcohol and content exposures requiring qualitative review.
Limitation: The filing does not provide a universal prohibited-activity revenue numerator across networks, advertising, studios, streaming, gaming and theme parks.
Purification
Comcast does not separately disclose an interest-income amount in this filing; no purification percentage or estimated prohibited-income numerator is invented.
Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
- Amounts are USD millions from Comcast's March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q.
- Interest-bearing debt is $94,612 million, comprising current and noncurrent debt; operating lease liabilities are excluded.
- Cash and cash equivalents are $9,468 million. The filing reports $7,450 million of investments but does not identify them as wholly interest-bearing securities, so they are not counted without a debt-security breakdown.
- Receivables are $14,078 million and quarterly revenue is $31,457 million.
- The filing reports investment and other income (loss), net, but does not separately disclose interest income; no unsupported income estimate is inserted. Connectivity, media, studio, gaming and theme-park activities require qualitative review.
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.
