## Why sharia_compliance_screener is rated Low

This tool retrieves and evaluates compliance data — it screens companies, instruments, and sectors against Sharia standards and returns classifications/ratios. It does not modify data, execute code, or move money. However, severity is medium because misclassification of financial instruments or companies could lead to significant downstream investment decisions in regulated Islamic finance contexts.

From the tool's own definition: "Sharia compliance screening engine... Full Sharia screen of a listed company: business activity (halal/haram/mixed) + AAOIFI financial ratios... Sukuk / halal fund classification by ISIN or name... Industry classification"

Risk signals: Accepts freeform code/query input (query)
