IMRELIEF IN PAKISTAN

Country Context

Pakistan has achieved substantial progress in terms of national poverty reduction, and water and sanitation averages. However, due to disparity in urban-rural outcomes, the progress has been overshadowed by a general perception of worsening well-being and rising inequality. IMR can close this gap by stretching the access of food, WASH and health services to rural, remote and difficult-to-reach populations.

Pakistan is among the largest refugee-hosting countries globally, with second- and third-generation of Afghans living in protracted displacement. In addition, the 2022 monsoon season brought floods that triggered nearly 10 million internal displacements, according to IOM. For these populations, seasonal and weather adjustments are the most acute, and require preparedness and responsiveness with food and shelter aid items.

Zakat Calculator

  • Calculate Assets (in USD)
  • Deduct Liabilities (in USD)

Zakat Calculator

For general use, you can use this Zakat calculator in any currency. However, to compare to the "nisab" threshold, calculations are in USD.

Zakat payable is 2.5% of the wealth one possesses, only once this wealth reaches the “nisab” threshold (which is equal to 85 grams of 24k gold). The nisab amount listed here is based on the latest available report to IMRelief (note: This number may change daily based on gold exchange rate).

Zakat is liable on gold, silver, cash, savings, investments, rent income, business merchandise and profits, shares, securities and bonds. Zakat is not paid on wealth used for debt repayment or living expenses such as clothing, food, housing, transportation, education, etc. Nisab threshold: $5,927 (latest update as of Mar 2024)


Use lowest amount held for one year

Exclude property intended for personal use or fixed assets
