Some of the items listed under 'Select Investment Type' are impermissable as they are essentially interest bearing instuments.

It is better to avoid trading in or holding (impermissable) assets.

Business

Include all Trade Debtors: Do not deduct bad debts in this section

Use the current market price to determine the appropiate value for your inventory

It might be more practical to work out a value based on the wholesale price assuming all the stock were to be sold in one single transaction on a willing buyer/seller basis

Professional or service orientated businesses e.g. lawyers, doctors, plumbers etc. should not capture monies owing to them for services rendered. The ‘Debtors Section’ should be used for this.

Polices

For conventional (non-Sharia compliant policies) first establish the premiums paid to date and the current value of the policy (whether accessible or not) and pay on the lesser amount as only that portion that equals your contributions (i.e. premiums) is halal. In other words, reduce current value by the amount of interest accrued.

For Sharia compliant policies pay Zakaat on the current value of the policy (whether accessible or not).

Zakaat is payable on all monies owing to you if you have a reasonable expectation that such monies are secure (will be paid).

Partnership

This section is to be filled in by people in a partnership type arrangement. Do not use this section for shares on a stock exchange. If there is no balance sheet or if its not current then the net-worth of the company could be equated to the value all share holders are prepared to sell the company for in its entirety, i.e. including stock, fixtures, fittings, motor vehicles etc.

Debtors

Zakaat is payable on all monies owing to you if you have a reasonable expectation that such monies are secure.

Liabilities
