Zakat is an obligatory form of charity in Islam. It purifies your wealth and supports those in need. It is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and becomes due once a Muslim’s wealth reaches the Nisab threshold for a full lunar year.
Any adult Muslim who owns wealth above the Nisab threshold for one full lunar (Hijri) year is required to pay Zakat.
Zakat is paid once every lunar year. Many Muslims choose a consistent date each year to make the process easier.
Nisab is the minimum amount of wealth a Muslim must have before Zakat becomes obligatory. This calculator uses the two standard Nisab values: 85 grams of gold or 595 grams of silver. You can choose either option based on your preferred opinion.
Both are valid. Gold Nisab is commonly used today because it reflects modern wealth levels more accurately. Silver Nisab is lower and results in more people qualifying for Zakat.
The calculator uses the current market price of gold to calculate the gold‑based Nisab in your local currency.
Zakatable assets include gold, silver, cash, savings, investments, business inventory, and money owed to you. Personal items like your home, car, and daily‑use belongings are not Zakatable.
Yes. Gold purity affects its value. The calculator allows you to enter the exact carat (such as 24k, 22k, or 18k) for accurate Zakat calculations.
If you have gold items with different carats, you can enter each item separately using the multiple gold rows in the calculator. Simply select the correct carat for each item, and the tool will calculate the total value accurately.
Add all cash on hand, bank balances, and savings. These amounts are fully Zakatable at 2.5%.
For investments such as stocks, mutual funds, or crypto, you can enter their current market value into the calculator. If you actively trade these assets, Zakat is due on the full value. For long‑term or retirement investments, only the Zakatable portion applies, so you may check with a local Islamic center or scholar for detailed guidance.
Immediate debts and short‑term liabilities can be subtracted from your total Zakatable assets before calculating Zakat. Since liability rules can vary based on scholarly opinion, you may also check with your local Islamic center or a qualified scholar for guidance on what should be included.
