Zakat Calculator 2026 - How to Calculate Zakat on Gold & Savings Online

We calculate zakat by adding all zakat-eligible assets including gold, silver, savings, business goods, and investments. If the total exceeds the nisab threshold and one lunar year has passed, 2.5% of the total is due as zakat. Our calculator automates this entire process for you.

To calculate zakat: 1) List all your zakat-eligible assets (gold, silver, cash, investments, business stock). 2) Add them together. 3) Subtract any debts. 4) Check if the total exceeds nisab. 5) If yes, calculate 2.5% of the amount over nisab. Our calculator does all these steps instantly.

Zakat is calculated by taking 2.5% of your total net wealth that exceeds the nisab (minimum) threshold, provided that one full lunar year has passed. The nisab is determined by current gold and silver prices. All assets including savings, gold, silver, business inventory, and investments are included in the calculation.

To calculate zakat on gold: 1) Determine the current gold market price. 2) Enter your total gold weight (in grams or ounces). 3) Check if your gold value exceeds the nisab threshold. 4) If yes, 2.5% is due as zakat. For jewelry with mixed metals, only count the pure gold weight. Our calculator handles this automatically.

You calculate zakat on gold by: multiplying your gold weight by the current gold price to get total value, checking if it exceeds nisab (about 87.48 grams of gold equivalent), and if yes, calculating 2.5% of the total. Account for purity if applicable. Our zakat calculator does all this in seconds with live gold prices.

In 2026, we calculate zakat using the same Islamic principles: 2.5% of wealth exceeding nisab after one lunar year. What changes is the nisab value - it's updated based on current gold and silver market prices. Our calculator uses 2026 market rates to ensure accurate nisab thresholds and zakat calculations.

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.

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.

Gold, silver, cash savings, business inventory, investments, stocks, agricultural produce, livestock, and trade goods. Exclude personal items, home, car, and required living necessities.

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.

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.

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.
