Zakat Calculator

Calculate zakat at 2.5% on cash, gold, silver, investments and business assets after deducting debts.

Formula

Zakat = 2.5% × (Cash + Gold and silver + Investments + Business assets − Debts due), payable if the total is at or above the nisab.

About this calculator

Zakat is due on wealth held for one lunar year above the nisab, the value of 87.48 g of gold or 612.36 g of silver. Because gold and silver prices change daily, enter today's nisab in your own currency. Rulings on jewellery, pensions and property differ between schools of thought, so consult a qualified scholar for your situation.

Amounts are shown without a currency symbol, so the calculator works for any currency: enter all values in the same one.

Frequently asked questions

Should I use the gold or the silver nisab?

Scholars differ. The silver nisab is lower, so more people qualify to pay; many scholars recommend it for cash and mixed assets as it benefits the poor more. Follow the guidance you trust.

Is zakat due on my home and car?

No. Personal-use items such as the home you live in, your car, clothing and household goods are not zakatable.
