Zakat is 2.5% of net zakatable wealth held for one lunar year and above nisab. Nisab tracks the price of gold/silver, which changes, and scholars differ on some assets (pensions, certain debts, shares). Treat this as an estimate and consult a qualified scholar. This is not financial or religious advice.

Zakat is due at 2.5% on the wealth a Muslim has held for one lunar year (hawl), provided it is above the nisab threshold. Enter your zakatable assets and any debts to estimate what may be due. This is a guide only — scholars differ on the treatment of some assets, so consult a knowledgeable scholar for your situation.

Frequently asked questions

How much is Zakat?

Zakat is 2.5% of your net zakatable wealth — the qualifying assets you have held for one lunar year, above the nisab threshold, after subtracting immediate debts.

What is nisab?

Nisab is the minimum amount of wealth a Muslim must hold before Zakat becomes due. It is equivalent to about 87.48 grams of gold or 612.36 grams of silver; its cash value changes with metal prices. Many scholars recommend using the lower (silver) value so more people benefit.

Is this a substitute for a scholar's advice?

No. This tool gives a straightforward 2.5% estimate. Rulings on specific assets — pensions, business shares, certain debts — vary between scholars, so seek qualified guidance for your circumstances.
