Zakat is due when your net zakatable wealth has been at or above nisab for one lunar year (hawl). This tool gives a careful estimate — for complex cases (pensions, business equity, agricultural produce), please consult a knowledgeable scholar.
What is zakat?
Zakat is the obligatory charity of Islam — one of the Five Pillars. It purifies your wealth: if your savings and trade goods reach a minimum threshold called nisab and you have held them for a full lunar year, you give 2.5% to people in need. It is not a tax on income; it is a right of the poor over accumulated wealth.
How the 2.5% is calculated
Add up everything zakatable: cash in hand and bank, the market value of gold and silver, stocks and investments, business merchandise at resale value, and money others owe you.
Subtract immediate debts and liabilities.
Compare the net figure to nisab. If it is equal or higher — and a lunar year has passed — your zakat is 2.5% of the net amount.
Example: net wealth of $10,000 above nisab → zakat = $10,000 × 0.025 = $250.
Understanding nisab
Nisab equals 87.48 grams of gold or 612.36 grams of silver. Because metal prices move daily, the cash value of nisab moves too — this calculator works it out live from the per-gram prices you enter. Many scholars recommend using the silver nisab because it is lower, meaning more people qualify and more charity reaches the poor.
Who can receive zakat?
The Quran (9:60) names eight categories, including the poor, the needy, those in debt, and travellers in need. Zakat cannot be given to your own dependents (parents, spouse, children) whom you are already obliged to support, but it can go to siblings, relatives in need, and trustworthy charities.

Do I pay zakat on gold jewellery I wear?
Scholars differ: many say zakat is due on all gold above nisab including jewellery, while others exempt jewellery worn regularly. When in doubt, consult a trusted scholar — many people pay on all gold to be safe.
Is zakat due on monthly salary?
Salary itself is not automatically subject to zakat each month. Zakat becomes due on the savings from your salary that remain with you for a full lunar year and reach the nisab threshold. If you spend your salary each month with little savings, no zakat is due on it.
