What the Service Does NOT Produce
| What the output is NOT | Explanation |
|---|---|
| A Fatwa | A religious ruling may only be issued by a qualified Islamic scholar (Mufti, Sharia Scholar). No algorithm or analytical system can substitute for such a ruling. |
| An Official Shariah Certificate | The Platform is not an accredited Shariah certification body. Only authorised Shariah Supervisory Boards (SSBs) may issue official compliance certificates. |
| Legal Advice | The Platform's outputs are not legal advice, legal expertise, or the opinion of a licensed attorney. For legal matters, consult a qualified lawyer. |
| An Investment Recommendation | The Platform is not a licensed investment adviser. Any investment decisions are made by the user independently and at their own risk. |
| An Audit Opinion | The Platform's scoring is not a financial statement audit. For financial audit purposes, engage a licensed auditor. |
| A Guarantee of Investment | A high score or "Investment Ready" status does not guarantee the attraction of financing from any specific investor. |
How the Methodology Works
The Amanah AI methodology is based on the publicly available standards of AAOIFI (Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions) and IFSB (Islamic Financial Services Board) and comprises 6 analytical blocks:

- Revenue Sources โ analysis of the revenue structure for Riba, Gharar, Maysir;
- Financial Structure โ debt burden, compliance of financing instruments;
- Contractual Framework โ financial instruments used (Murabahah, Musharakah, Ijarah, etc.);
- Transparency and Governance โ presence of SSB, audit, disclosure;
- Investment Readiness โ readiness to attract Islamic capital.
Analysis is carried out based on data submitted by the user during the application process. The accuracy of results depends directly on the completeness and accuracy of the data provided.
