HALAL — DATA INCOMPLETEstock

Is X Halal?

Historical steel manufacturing — permissible industrial business.

What You Should Know

United States Steel's last available March 31, 2025 filing showed historical debt/assets 20.38%, liquidity/assets 2.96%, receivables plus cash/assets 11.16% and interest income/revenue 0.27%. Nippon Steel completed the acquisition on June 18, 2025, so X is no longer a current tradable ticker and this historical screen is not a present investment recommendation.

⚠️ Concerns

  • Ticker no longer publicly traded
  • Historical data only
  • Successor security requires a new screen
  • Steel environmental and end-use review

Business-activity disclosure

United States Steel manufactured steel products, raw materials and related industrial goods. The operating category is generally permissible, but this historical screen is not a current investment recommendation because the public company was acquired and the X listing ceased.

Limitation: There is no current public-issuer filing or tradable X security to support a present-date screen; the historical filing cannot establish the Sharia status of any successor or residual claim.

Purification

The historical filing discloses interest income of $10 million (0.27% of quarterly net sales), but no current security exists to which a universal purification instruction could be applied.

Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
  • This is the last available U.S. Steel 10-Q before Nippon Steel completed the acquisition on June 18, 2025; X is not treated as a currently tradable security.
  • Debt uses $4,092 million of total debt, including $109 million of short-term debt and current maturities.
  • Receivables combine $1,470 million of receivables and $177 million of receivables from related parties. Cash is $594 million; no separate interest-bearing securities balance is identified.
  • Quarterly net sales are $3,727 million and disclosed interest income is $10 million.

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.
