Who We Are

A Shari'ah-compliant cooperative, built on Amanah.

Al-Amanah Multipurpose Cooperative Society (SHESTCO-Abuja) is a Shari'ah-compliant, non-interest cooperative formed by staff of the Sheda Science and Technology Complex (SHESTCO) and the Nigerian Atomic Energy Commission (NAEC). We exist to give members an ethical, halal alternative to conventional interest-based (riba) savings and lending.

Rather than earning income from interest on loans, the Society operates on non-interest, profit-and-loss-sharing principles — drawing income from real trade, leasing and partnership activities. Members save together, access interest-free facilities, and share in the surplus generated from the Society's halal business ventures.

  • 01 Non-interest, profit-and-loss-sharing principles — no riba, ever.
  • 02 Income earned only from real trade, leasing and partnership.
  • 03 Open, transparent bookkeeping reviewed at every AGM.
