ED
Consolidated Edison Inc.
Is ED Halal?
New York utility — core service is permissible but the current debt screen fails.
What You Should Know
Con Edison's March 31, 2026 filing reports debt/assets of 33.69%, liquidity/assets of 0.20% and receivables plus cash/assets of 5.06%; disclosed investment income is 0.35% of quarterly revenue. Electric, gas and steam utility services remain generally permissible, while regulated procurement, conventional financing and investment income require qualitative review.
⚠️ Concerns
- •Debt screen fails at 33.69% of assets
- •Electric, gas and steam regulatory structures
- •Conventional financing and disclosed investment income
- •No universal prohibited-revenue numerator

A properly licensed and reproducible 24- or 36-month issuer market-cap history is not stored, so market-cap methods are not estimated from a current spot price.
Business-activity disclosure
Con Edison supplies regulated electric, gas and steam utility services in New York. Core utility service is generally permissible, while gas infrastructure, power procurement, regulatory recovery, conventional financing, investment income and environmental obligations require qualitative review.
Limitation: Customer, contract and investment activity are not allocated into a universal prohibited-revenue taxonomy; the disclosed investment-income figure is not a complete activity classification.
Purification
Con Edison discloses $18 million of investment income, but no scholar-approved purification percentage is prescribed; the figure is evidence for the income screen, not a complete purification prescription.
Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
- Amounts are USD millions from Con Edison's March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q.
- Interest-bearing debt includes $250 million of long-term debt due within one year, $869 million of notes payable and $24,063 million of long-term debt; operating lease liabilities are excluded.
- Cash and temporary cash investments are $147 million; the filing's $1,063 million of investments is not separately characterized as unrestricted interest-bearing securities.
- Receivables combine customer accounts receivable of $2,814 million, other receivables of $111 million, accrued unbilled revenue of $653 million and taxes receivable of $54 million; first-quarter revenue is $5,095 million.
- The filing discloses $18 million of investment income, used as a conservative income-screen numerator rather than an official purification amount.
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.
