FIVE
Five Below Inc.
Is FIVE Halal?
Discount retail is generally permissible and the latest disclosed asset-based financial ratios pass.
What You Should Know
Five Below's May 2, 2026 filing reports no interest-bearing debt, 22.02% identifiable liquidity/assets and 12.64% receivables-plus-cash/assets. The conservative other-income upper bound is 0.65% of quarterly net sales. Product mix—including entertainment and youth merchandise—remains a qualitative question.
⚠️ Concerns
- •Product-level revenue is not mapped to a universal Sharia taxonomy
- •Corporate-bond holdings are included conservatively in liquidity
- •Interest income is not separately disclosed

Business-activity disclosure
Five Below is a discount retailer of toys, accessories, room décor, beauty, tech and other consumer goods. Ordinary retail is generally permissible, while product mix and entertainment-related items require qualitative review.
Limitation: The filing does not quantify product-level revenue under a universal prohibited-activity taxonomy and combines interest income with other income.
Purification
Interest income is included only in a conservative 8.3 million other-income upper bound. ZakatInvest does not prescribe a fixed scholar-approved purification percentage.
Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
- Amounts are USD millions from Five Below's May 2, 2026 Form 10-Q.
- No drawn line of credit or other conventional borrowings are reported; operating lease liabilities are not treated as interest-bearing debt in this screen.
- Cash is 638.892 and short-term corporate-bond investments are 474.370.
- No trade-receivable line is reported on the balance sheet, so accounts receivable is recorded as zero rather than inferred.
- Quarterly net sales are 1,285.6; interest income and other income, net of 8.3 is used as a conservative upper bound because interest income is not separated.
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.
