Is W Halal?
Furniture and home goods retail with failed debt and liquidity screens.
What You Should Know
Wayfair's March 31, 2026 filing shows debt/assets 103.48%, liquidity/assets 37.00%, receivables plus cash/assets 40.49%, and disclosed interest income of 0.38% of quarterly revenue. Home-goods retail is generally permissible, but the quantitative screens fail and financing/product categories require qualitative review.
⚠️ Concerns
- •Debt screen fails at 103.48% of assets
- •Liquidity and receivables-plus-cash screens fail
- •Product and financing activity is not quantified

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
Wayfair is an online retailer and marketplace for furniture and home goods. Retail is generally permissible, but product-level activity, financing arrangements and supplier/customer end uses are not quantified under a universal prohibited-revenue taxonomy.
Limitation: The filing does not provide a reproducible prohibited-revenue numerator for product categories, financing, alcohol or other scholar-specific activity categories.
Purification
The filing separately reports interest income at 0.38% of quarterly revenue, but ZakatInvest does not prescribe a fixed scholar-approved purification percentage and product activity remains incomplete.
Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
- Debt combines $39 million of short-term debt with $2,931 million of long-term debt; the debt note reports $2,970 million total debt.
- Cash uses $1,004 million of cash and cash equivalents. Short-term available-for-sale investment securities are $58 million and are included.
- Accounts receivable are $158 million and quarterly revenue is $2,931 million.
- The filing separately reports $11 million of interest income, or 0.38% of quarterly revenue.
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.
