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, or 612.36 grams of silver). The nisab amount listed here is based on the silver threshold and per the latest available report to IMRelief (note: This number may change daily based on gold/silver 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.

Please consider adding 2% to your total zakat donation when using a credit card—this will cover the processing fees deducted from your donation by the credit card companies, and will ensure that your intended zakat amount is paid in full.

Nisab threshold as of 21 February 2026  (approximately):
