Look for certified expertise, not a list — this app intentionally doesn't provide one.
Q: Where can I find a list of halal banks, funds, or investment platforms? A: Not in this app, by design — product lists change constantly, vary drastically by country, and require ongoing compliance monitoring that only specialised institutions can properly maintain. Look instead for institutions with a genuine, named Shariah supervisory board and published compliance methodology.
Q: How do I know if a scholar or certification is legitimate? A: Look for scholars or boards recognised by established Islamic finance standard-setting bodies in your region or internationally, rather than informal online claims. A reputable institution will be transparent about who reviews its products and how.
Q: What should I do if I can't find any Islamic finance options where I live? A: This is a real and common situation. Discuss it with a knowledgeable local imam or scholar — they can help you weigh the available options for your specific circumstances, since guidance here can depend heavily on what alternatives genuinely exist for you.

Look for institutions with a named, transparent Shariah supervisory board rather than relying on marketing claims.
General education, not financial or fatwa advice. Fund screeners, specific products, and rulings on your own contracts need a qualified, certified Islamic finance scholar or institution.
