The Short Answer
BLD is doubtful as a current investment screen. Installing and distributing insulation is a generally permissible business, but TopBuild's last public filing showed debt/assets of 42.20%, above the examined 33% limits. QXO completed the acquisition on July 1, 2026, so BLD is no longer a current standalone public security.

TopBuild was acquired by QXO on July 1, 2026, so no current standalone public market-cap series is available.
Business-activity disclosure
TopBuild installs and distributes insulation and related building products, a generally permissible construction-services activity. The July 1, 2026 QXO acquisition ended TopBuild's standalone public-company status, so this is a historical screen only.
Limitation: The last public filing predates the completed transaction; no current standalone public market-cap series or successor financial statement for the acquired business is stored, and gross interest income is not separately disclosed.
Purification
Gross interest income is not separately disclosed in the last public filing and TopBuild is no longer a standalone public issuer; no fixed purification percentage is inferred.
Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
- March 31, 2026 figures are USD millions from TopBuild's last public-company Form 10-Q.
- Debt is current debt of $62.500 million plus long-term debt of $2,769.888 million; operating lease liabilities are excluded.
- Cash is $268.847 million and unbilled/receivables input is $91.125 million; no interest-bearing securities are separately reported.
- Quarterly net sales are $1,445.860 million and gross interest income is not separately disclosed.
- QXO completed its acquisition on July 1, 2026; TopBuild's shares were converted under the transaction and BLD is a historical screen, not a current public-stock recommendation.
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.
TopBuild's Business
TopBuild installed insulation and distributed related building products for residential and commercial construction. Construction services and building materials are generally permissible activities, with no gambling, conventional banking or similar prohibited core line identified in the filing.
Historical Filing-Based Ratios
- Debt/assets: 42.20% ($2,832.388 million / $6,711.163 million) — above the examined FTSE Yasaar, MSCI and Malaysia-style limits.
- Cash/assets: 4.01% — below the examined liquidity limits.
- Receivables plus cash/assets: 5.36% — below the examined receivables limits.
- Gross interest income: Not separately disclosed in the last public filing.
The ratio denominator here is total assets because the shared screen stores transparent asset-based calculations. It is not a claim about a current market-cap screen or an official index classification.
Why the Status Is Historical
QXO completed its acquisition of TopBuild on July 1, 2026. TopBuild's shares were converted under the transaction and the business became part of QXO's insulation operations. The March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q is therefore useful evidence of the last public balance sheet, but it cannot establish a current standalone ticker verdict or current market-cap ratio.
Bottom Line
The construction-services activity was generally permissible, but the last public filing failed the examined debt screen and gross interest income was unavailable. Since BLD is no longer a current standalone public security, treat this as a historical, doubtful screen—not a current buy or sell instruction. Consult a qualified scholar for a personal ruling.
For current building-material exposure, compare companies such as Trex (TREX), Eagle Materials (EXP) and Vulcan Materials (VMC), and screen each latest filing separately.
