First Trust STOXX European Select Dividend Index Fund ETF · First Trust Exchange-Traded Fund II

31 holdings · as of 2026-06-30 (3.5 months ago) The fund may have traded since. SEC Form N-PORT is filed quarterly and lags the period it covers, so these are the most recent holdings on file, not the fund’s holdings today.

NON-COMPLIANT 89.53% of portfolio weight is in non-compliant holdings, over the 5% threshold.

11.66% of this portfolio’s income is non-permissible — weighted across holdings, computed over 76% of portfolio weight (23 of 31 holdings). The common approach purifies that proportion of income received — dividends — not of the position’s value. We report the ratio; what to do with it is a question for your own scholar.

The published standards disagree about this fund by 23 points of portfolio weight — 30.4% of it passes MSCI Islamic, 7.4% passes Dow Jones Islamic. Which number is yours depends on which standard you follow.

These bars are the financial-ratio result under each standard — debt, receivables and interest income. They do not screen what the business does, so a holding can pass every ratio here and still be questionable or non-compliant on activity. The blended verdict above accounts for both.

ratios pass on 10.0% ratios fail on 89.5% 0.0% not rated under AAOIFI

30 of 31 listed holdings carry our own per-methodology verdicts (100% of weight). The rest hold a provider verdict with no methodology breakdown, and are counted as rated by none. Of those, 3 (8% of weight) also carry the underlying debt ratio; the rest show a verdict without the figure behind it.

SEPARATE FROM SHARIAH

Price Forecast

The range is measured volatility (ATR over the horizon), not a target — a wider band means a more volatile asset, not a stronger view. The direction is the indicator tally below. Every forecast is recorded when made and scored against the real price when it comes due, including the wrong ones. Not a recommendation, and not a fatwa.

Before you act on this

The questions worth asking about any verdict on this page, answered plainly.

Is a fund screened on its name?

No. HTR reads the fund's filed holdings and screens each one, then reports the result by weight. A fund marketed as Islamic still gets the same look-through as any other.

What does unrated weight mean?

It is the share of the fund whose holdings HTR cannot cover far enough to rate. It is reported as unrated rather than counted as compliant, because a holding nobody screened should not look like one that passed.

Does the issuer's board make it compliant?

It matters, and it is noted, but it does not replace the look-through. The board's judgement and the holdings screen are shown separately so you can see when they agree and when they do not.

How often is this re-screened?

When the fund files new holdings, and on a rolling basis besides. The date on the verdict above is the last time this fund was actually recomputed.

Open research, not a fatwa. HTR applies published screening standards to filings and publishes what they say, including when they disagree. Nothing here is financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell. Verdicts can change when new filings land.

Compare with

Same screen, different answers. Comparison is where the standards disagreeing becomes useful rather than confusing.

Insider transactions reported in the last ninety days. Insiders sell for reasons that have nothing to do with a view, so a sale on its own is not a signal.
