PEGA
Pegasystems Inc.
Is PEGA Halal?
Pega's enterprise workflow software is generally permissible, but its March 2026 receivables-plus-cash ratio is 43.41%, above the examined MSCI limit.
What You Should Know
Pegasystems' March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q reports $1,550.998M of assets, no interest-bearing debt, $269.962M cash, $203.992M marketable securities, $403.372M receivables and $429.973M quarterly revenue. ZakatInvest calculates debt/assets of 0.00%, liquidity/assets of 30.56%, receivables plus cash/assets of 43.41% and disclosed interest income/revenue of 0.69%. Debt, liquidity and the FTSE/Malaysia asset-based screens pass, but the MSCI receivables-plus-cash limit fails. Pega provides cloud, case-management, business-process and decisioning software; banks and insurers are customers, not the product itself.
⚠️ Concerns
- •Public disclosure does not allocate revenue by customer industry, automated decision or downstream outcome
- •Pega AI and decisioning tools can be used in finance, government, healthcare and other sectors
- •Marketable securities and cash require methodology-specific treatment
- •Interest income is disclosed but no fixed scholar-approved purification percentage is asserted

Business-activity disclosure
Pegasystems provides cloud, case-management, business-process-management, customer-engagement and real-time decisioning software. General-purpose enterprise software is generally permissible, but customer use and AI decisioning require qualitative review.
Limitation: The filing does not allocate revenue by customer industry, automated decision, data use or downstream outcome into a universal prohibited-revenue numerator.
Purification
Disclosed interest income is 0.69% of quarterly revenue and below the examined income limit, but no fixed scholar-approved purification percentage is prescribed and business revenue remains unallocated.
Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
- Amounts are USD millions from the unaudited March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q.
- No interest-bearing debt is reported; operating lease liabilities are excluded.
- Cash is $269.962 million and marketable securities are $203.992 million.
- Receivables include $173.856 million accounts receivable plus $142.057 million current and $87.459 million long-term unbilled receivables.
- Quarterly revenue was $429.973 million and disclosed interest income was $2.954 million.
- Pega derives substantially all revenue from case-management, business-process-management, real-time decisioning and enterprise-application software; downstream customer use remains qualitative.
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.
