How it works

Nisab

Zakat is due when your wealth reaches the nisab: the value of 85 g of pure gold or 595 g of silver. Many scholars recommend the silver nisab because it is lower and benefits more people in need.

Rate and timing

Zakat is 2.5% of your total zakatable wealth once it has stayed above the nisab for a full lunar (Hijri) year.

Frequently asked questions

Do I pay zakat on my salary?

Not on the salary itself, but on whatever you have saved from it that is above the nisab on your zakat date.

Is zakat due on gold jewellery?

Scholars differ. Investment gold always counts. For jewellery that is regularly worn, follow the opinion of your school of thought or a scholar you trust.

How is zakat on shares calculated?

If you trade shares, pay 2.5% of their market value. Long-term investors may follow scholars who calculate zakat on the company's zakatable assets only.
