Hello readers, today, I decided to give you a list of industries you can invest in. These industries are profitable as such you can start a business or buy the shares (halal) of companies that exist in the industry.

1. Healthcare Industy

This is one of the largest and growing industries in the world and it takes at least 10% of the GDP  (Gross Domestic Products) of most developed nations. The industry had a net profit margin of over 18% in USA (2015).

2.  Finance Industry

This industry is also a very good one for investment. Everyone deals with money. The industry had a net profit margin of over 16% in USA (2015). However, your products should be halal

3. Transportation Industry

Individuals always move about, thus it is a good industry to invest in. The industry had a net profit margin of over 8% in USA (2015).

4. Communication Industry

This industry is also a good one, individuals always communicate either from one city to another or from one continent to another. Thus the business is a lucrative one. The industry had a net profit margin of over 6% in USA (2015).

5.  Retail Industry
This is another industry that is profitable and growing. The industry had a net profit margin of over 3% in USA (2015).

Make sure your business or investment is halal. Everything should be done deliberately for the sake of Allah. Part of doing something deliberately for the sake of Allah is hoping for a reward. Everything happens according to the will of Allah (you have freewill which makes you responsible for your actions).

Halal means anything that is lawful Islamically.
