How to calculate Zakat?

What Is Zakat?

Zakat is an obligatory charity in Islam requiring eligible Muslims to pay 2.5% of their qualifying wealth once it reaches the nisab threshold and has been held for one full lunar year (hawl).

What Is Nisab?

Nisab is the minimum amount of wealth a Muslim must possess before zakat becomes obligatory. It is traditionally calculated based on the value of:

  • 87.48 grams of gold (Gold nisab)
  • 612.36 grams of silver (Silver nisab)

The nisab value changes daily depending on market prices. You can check the Gold price today or Silver price today to understand how the threshold is calculated.

Gold vs Silver Nisab — Which Should You Choose?

Many scholars recommend using the silver nisab because it sets a lower threshold and benefits more people in need. However, some prefer the gold nisab due to its higher stability in value. Choose the method that aligns with your understanding or consult a scholar.

When Is Zakat Not Required?

Zakat is not obligatory if your total zakatable wealth is below the nisab threshold or has not been held for one full lunar year.

Use this zakat calculator anytime during the year to check your eligibility and calculate your zakat accurately and confidently.

What Assets Are Subject to Zakat?

Zakat applies to wealth that is productive or held as savings. This includes money, trade goods, precious metals, investments and digital assets.

While zakat is calculated based on gold or silver, monitoring broader metal markets may help understand price movements.
