What is the Zakat nisab?

The nisab equals the value of 85 g of gold; if your assets reach this value and a complete lunar year has elapsed, Zakat is due.

What is the Zakat rate?

The Zakat rate on assets is 2.5% (one-quarter of one-tenth) of the assets subject to Zakat.

What assets are subject to Zakat?

Cash and savings, gold and silver, trade goods, and recoverable receivables; your outstanding debts are deducted.

When assets reach the nisab and a complete lunar year (hawl) has passed while you are the owner.

How do you set the nisab in dinars?

Multiply 85 by the current gold price per gram; since the gold price changes, enter today's price for an accurate nisab.

How it works

Assets subject to Zakat = cash + gold and silver + trade goods + recoverable receivables − your outstanding debts.
Nisab = 85 g × gold price per gram; Zakat is due if your assets reach the nisab and a full lunar year has elapsed.
Zakat = assets subject to Zakat × 2.5% (one-quarter of one-tenth).
