Common Questions
Everything you need to know
Q.When should I calculate and pay my zakat?
Ideally during Ramadan - the blessed month when many fulfill their zakat obligations. However, zakat becomes due when a lunar year passes with the required nisab amount. Calculate based on your Islamic calendar date or choose Ramadan for convenience.
Q.What is nisab and how does it affect my zakat?
Nisab is the minimum wealth threshold that makes zakat obligatory. It's equivalent to approximately 2.5 tola of gold or 52.5 tola of silver (current values set market rates). Only wealth exceeding nisab is subject to zakat at 2.5% rate.
Q.How do I calculate zakat on gold?
Enter your total gold weight, specify its purity or market value, then our calculator determines if it meets nisab. If yes, 2.5% is due. For jewelry with mixed metals, use weight of pure gold only.
Q.What counts as zakat-obligatory wealth?
Gold, silver, cash savings, business inventory, investments, stocks, agricultural produce, livestock, and trade goods. Exclude personal items, home, car, and required living necessities.
Q.Can I calculate zakat for business inventory?
Yes! Our calculator includes business zakat. Enter inventory value, accounts receivable, and other commercial assets. Personal stock within the business isn't counted unless intended for resale.
Q.How do I calculate agricultural zakat (ushr)?
Agricultural land produces ushr (5-10% depending on irrigation). Enter crop type and yield quantity - the calculator determines the appropriate percentage and final ushr amount.
Q.Is my Ramadan zakat calculation timing important?
Ramadan is ideal for zakat payments but not mandatory. Calculate whenever a lunar year has passed since your previous zakat payment. Many choose Ramadan as it amplifies spiritual reward.
Q.Can I use this calculator for multiple family members?
Yes! Calculate zakat separately for each individual whose wealth meets nisab threshold. Children's wealth and jointly-owned assets require special consideration - the calculator handles these scenarios.
Q.What if I have debts - do they reduce my zakat?
Yes, legitimate debts reduce your taxable wealth. Enter short-term debts that will be paid soon. Long-term mortgages typically don't reduce zakat obligation unless they're due within the zakat year.
Q.Is this calculator accurate for Ramadan zakat?
Absolutely! Based on established Islamic principles and updated market rates. However, for complex situations, consult your local Islamic scholar. This tool provides guidance and calculation assistance.
