Zakat Calculator

Calculate your zakat accurately at the prescribed 2.5% rate, with a custom nisab value for your local currency.

Calculator

Settings

Enter the nisab value for your currency (e.g., the value of 85g of gold). This field is required to calculate zakat.
Choose the year type for the holding period. Does not affect the zakat rate (2.5%).

Zakatable Assets

Enter values in the selected currency. All assets are summed, then liabilities are deducted to reach net assets.

Calculation Steps

Enter your assets and liabilities

Enter values for cash, bank balances, gold, silver, trade goods, receivables, and investments. Then enter liabilities (debts due for payment).

Set nisab and year type

Enter the nisab value in your local currency (e.g., the price of 85g of gold). Choose the year type (Hijri or Gregorian) per your school of thought.

Review the result

If net assets meet the nisab, zakat at 2.5% is shown. Confirm the holding period is complete before paying.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the nisab and how do I determine it?

The nisab is the minimum threshold of wealth that triggers zakat. It is traditionally equivalent to 85g of gold or 595g of silver. Enter the cash equivalent in your local currency at the time of calculation.

Does the calculator account for debts?

Due debts (liabilities) are deducted from total assets. Deferred or non-due debts are not deducted in this simplified calculation. Consult a scholar for your specific case.

What is the difference between Hijri and Gregorian year?

The Hijri year is 354 days, the Gregorian 365 days. This affects when the holding period completes, not the zakat rate (fixed at 2.5%). Choose the one your school or authority follows.

Is the result religiously binding?

No. The calculator provides a mathematical estimate based on your inputs. A valid fatwa requires reviewing the nature of assets, ownership intent, and precise classifications. Consult a trusted authority.
