Islamic account & our Sharia checklist
Swap-free account: Available.
A swap-free label is not the same as a Sharia-compliance verdict. Check that no overnight interest is charged under another name, replacement fees are fixed rather than interest-linked, leverage terms are understood, and the exact contract is reviewed.
Our factual note: A swap-free option is disclosed, but availability alone is not a religious verdict. Verify the fee schedule, holding-period rules, leverage terms, and contract directly with the broker.
