Zakat Calculator — FAQs
Is this Zakat calculator free?
Yes, completely free with no signup and no limits. Estimate your Zakat as often as you need, and everything runs privately in your own browser — your financial details are never uploaded or stored anywhere.
What is nisab and does this calculator check it?
Nisab is the minimum threshold of wealth above which Zakat becomes due, traditionally the value of 87.48 grams of gold or 612.36 grams of silver. This simplified tool does not check nisab, so compare your net Zakatable amount against the current nisab value in your country before paying.
Which assets count for Zakat?
Generally cash, bank balances, gold and silver in any form, trade goods and investments held for growth are Zakatable. Personal items like your home, car, furniture and clothes you use are not. Rules differ between schools of thought, so a scholar's guidance is important for unusual assets.
Why does it say to consult a scholar?
Zakat has detailed rules — the lunar year of ownership, mixed asset types, business inventory valuation and debts all have conditions this simple tool cannot cover. The calculator gives you a solid estimate, but a knowledgeable scholar ensures your obligation is discharged correctly.
