Welcome to Sharia Investments. In this publication, I’m building a stock portfolio that follows Sharia rules and focuses on value companies.

Every second and fourth Sunday, I’ll choose one new company to add. I’ll explain why I picked it in a short, easy-to-read note.

I will keep each stock for at least one year. By the end of the first year, I should own 24 different stocks. After that, I’ll decide whether to keep it for another year or sell it and buy something better.

Here’s how I choose:

• I read ideas from Value Investors Club, where experts share their best stock picks.

• I use Zoya to check that the companies are Sharia-compliant.

• I look at Morningstar to see if the stock is selling for a fair price.

• I use Claude to help summarize the research in plain language.

Whenever I buy a stock, I’ll also put the same amount in the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF. That way, we can see if my picks are doing better or worse than the market.

Apart from the two stock updates each month, I’ll also write about what I’m learning and thinking about Sharia value investing.

If you’re curious, want to learn, or just want to follow along, please subscribe. I’d love to have you join me!
