LYFT2
Maplebear Inc. / Instacart (CART; preserved alias)
Is LYFT2 Halal?
Grocery marketplace and delivery business with a methodology-dependent historical screen; the current issuer ticker is CART.
What You Should Know
Maplebear's March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q reports assets of $3,535 million, no interest-bearing debt, cash of $631 million, marketable securities of $122 million, receivables of $1,095 million and quarterly revenue of $1,019 million. Debt/assets is 0.00%, liquidity/assets is 21.30%, receivables plus cash/assets is 48.83% and disclosed interest income is $6 million, or 0.59% of revenue. Grocery delivery and ordinary household goods are generally permissible, but alcohol delivery and product-level marketplace activity remain qualitative concerns. LYFT2 is retained as a legacy route alias for current issuer CART.

Business-activity disclosure
Maplebear operates the Instacart grocery marketplace, fulfillment and advertising platform. Grocery and household delivery are generally permissible, but alcohol delivery and product-level marketplace activity are not quantified.
Limitation: The filing does not provide a reproducible prohibited-revenue numerator for alcohol, tobacco, non-halal products or marketplace advertising categories.
Purification
The filing separately reports interest income at 0.59% of quarterly revenue, but ZakatInvest does not prescribe a fixed scholar-approved purification percentage and product-level activity remains incomplete.
Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
- The current Maplebear filing reports no interest-bearing debt balance.
- Cash uses $631 million of cash and cash equivalents; short- and long-term marketable securities total $122 million ($59 million short-term and $63 million long-term). Restricted cash is excluded.
- Accounts receivable are $1,095 million and quarterly revenue is $1,019 million.
- The filing separately reports $6 million of interest income, or 0.59% of quarterly revenue; the prior alias record's $14 million figure was the comparative March 2025 amount and is corrected here.
- The preserved LYFT2 route is an existing alias whose asset record describes Maplebear/Instacart (current ticker CART); the URL is unchanged.
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.
