What is the Zakat Calculator?

Zakat is one of the Five Pillars of Islam — an obligatory annual payment of 2.5% on wealth that exceeds the Nisab threshold and has been held for one full lunar year (Hawl). This calculator totals your Zakatable wealth — cash, gold, silver, investments, business inventory, and receivables — subtracts any debts you owe, compares the result to the Nisab threshold in your chosen currency, and tells you whether Zakat is due and how much.

How to Use It

Choose your currency and whether you want the Nisab calculated on the gold or silver standard, then enter your assets: cash and bank balances, the current market value of gold and silver you hold, investments, business inventory, and money owed to you. Enter any debts you owe as a deduction, and optionally update the gold and silver price per gram for today's rates. The result shows your total zakatable wealth, the Nisab threshold, and your Zakat due if applicable.

When to Use It

Use it once a lunar year has passed since your wealth first reached the Nisab threshold, commonly checked and paid during Ramadan. It's also useful any time during the year to check whether your current savings have crossed the Nisab line, or to plan ahead for how much Zakat you'll owe.

Who Benefits

Muslims calculating their annual Zakat obligation, especially those with savings, gold or silver holdings, investments, or business inventory, benefit from having every asset type totaled in one place. Most scholars recommend the silver standard for Nisab since it sets a lower threshold, making Zakat obligatory for more people and benefiting more of the poor and needy. This calculator provides an estimate — for complex situations like business partnerships or agricultural Zakat, consult a qualified Islamic scholar.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Zakat is not due on personal-use items like your home, car, furniture, or clothing — only on wealth held for growth or savings, such as cash, gold, silver, investments, and business inventory, which is what this calculator asks about.
Both are valid, but most scholars recommend the silver standard (612.36g) because it results in a lower threshold than the gold standard (87.48g), making more people eligible to pay Zakat and benefiting more of the poor and needy. Switch between the two in the Nisab Standard dropdown to compare.
Zakat becomes due once a full lunar year (Hawl) has passed since your wealth first reached or exceeded the Nisab threshold and remained there. Many Muslims choose to calculate and pay it during Ramadan for convenience, but the actual due date follows your own Hawl anniversary, not a fixed calendar date.
