According to AAOIFI Shariah screening standards, Southern Company (The) (SO) is currently classified as Not Halal (Non-Compliant). This is based on both business activity and financial ratio screening.

Identified interest income is 0.0% of Southern Company (The)'s total income. AAOIFI standards require non-permissible income to be below 5%.

SO is screened using AAOIFI Standard No. 21, which involves two checks: business activity screening (ensuring the company's core business is permissible in Islam) and financial ratio screening (checking debt, interest income, and cash ratios against defined thresholds). AAOIFI is the most widely recognized standard for Islamic finance.

Southern Company (The)'s compliance status is reviewed whenever new financial data becomes available, typically after quarterly or annual earnings reports. Market cap changes can also affect financial ratio screening results. Mizaan refreshes screening data periodically to reflect the latest filings.
