Hi. For those who are keen on halal investments, how do you deal with employer 401(K)? I don’t want to miss out on employer matching but my employer’s program doesn’t have halal etfs that I personally invest in.

TLDR version: it’s permissible in this case if u don’t have a choice with investment options within 401(k). Read up on AMJA or ask ur local imam.
