Assalamu alaikum, everyone,
I wrote Halal Wealth specifically to bridge that gap — especially for Muslims living in the West (US, UK, Canada, Europe) where most Islamic finance books either assume you live in the Gulf or they stay too theoretical to be actionable.
The 2nd Edition just launched, and I’ve added several sections based on the most common questions I kept seeing in communities like this one:
A complete 30-Day Action Plan — day-by-day guide from “I have no halal investments” to “I have an account open, my first ETF purchased, and automatic contributions running.” Removes all the friction points that keep people stuck in analysis paralysis.
Three Model Portfolios — Conservative (50+), Moderate (35–50), Aggressive (under 35). Each one shows exact asset class percentages, halal product examples (SPUS, HLAL, SPSK, etc.), and real projected outcomes over 25 years on a $1,000/month contribution.
Cryptocurrency chapter — Scholar-informed framework for evaluating which tokens may be permissible and which clearly aren’t. No blanket yes/no, because the ruling genuinely depends on the specific use case and gharar level.
**Retirement planning for Western Muslims: Includes how to plan a balanced portoflio that will be used as a retirement wealth following the Shariah principles.
ETF screening, sukuk evaluation, NPV/IRR calculators, Zakat on investments, and a full glossary of Islamic finance terms.
Why I’m posting here:
Zoya users are exactly who I wrote this for — people who care about compliance but need guidance on building an actual portfolio, not just screening individual stocks.
