DOHA, Qatar – May 8, 2025 – ZeroH, Blade Labs' embedded Islamic finance platform, has received a formal Shariah pronouncement ("fatwa") from the prestigious Amanie Shariah Supervisory Board. The fatwa specifically validates ZeroH's digitalization and smartization services for Islamic financial products and transactions.
The approval confirms that ZeroH's comprehensive asset tokenization and smart contract framework complies with Shariah requirements by ensuring the correct execution order of financial steps - a critical foundation of Islamic finance integrity.
"This fatwa validates what we've built at our core—infrastructure that addresses the fundamental compliance challenge Islamic finance has faced for decades," said Sami Mian, CEO of Blade Labs. "ZeroH empowers financial institutions to embed Shariah compliance directly into their existing systems, bridging the gap between centuries-old principles and modern financial operations while delivering unprecedented efficiency."
The fatwa, signed by Dr. Mohamed Ali Elgari (Chairman), Dr. Mohd Daud Bakar, Dr. Muhammad Amin Ali Al-Qattan, and Dr. Osama Al-Dereai, specifically validates ZeroH's framework for multiple Shariah-based contracts, including Murabahah financing, Commodity Murabaha financing, hire purchase arrangements, and Musharakah structures.

"This approval establishes the foundation for a new era in Islamic finance," added Mian. "By embedding proper validation controls directly into financial workflows while maintaining strict Shariah compliance, we're enabling institutions to solve their most critical operational challenge while delivering better experiences for their customers."
ZeroH operates under the Shariah principle of Ujrah (fee-for-service) and will power the forthcoming ZeroH Network, connecting financial institutions through secure, verified transaction sequences across multiple Islamic financial products.
ZeroH is an embedded Islamic finance platform that enables proper transaction sequencing for Murabahah, Commodity Murabahah, Ijarah, and more. Backed by smart contracts and annual Shariah audits, ZeroH automates compliance under Ujrah—delivering a riba-free solution that reduces risk, cuts costs, and accelerates approvals.
