Calculate Zakat with Confidence and Peace of Mind

Fulfilling the third pillar of Islam is a spiritual obligation that brings purity to your wealth and barakah to your life. However, calculating Zakat (Al-Zakah) accurately can be confusing due to fluctuating gold and silver prices. QuickNisab.com simplifies this process. Our tool helps you determine if your wealth meets the Nisab threshold—the minimum amount required to pay Zakat—using the latest market data for Gold and Silver.

What is Nisab? Understanding the Threshold

Nisab is the specific minimum amount of wealth that a Muslim must possess for a full lunar year (Hawl) before Zakat becomes obligatory. If your net assets (after deducting immediate debts) are below this threshold, you are not required to pay Zakat.

The Two Standards of Nisab

  • The Gold Standard (Dinar): This is equivalent to approximately 87.48 grams (3 ounces) of pure gold. It is often used for those whose primary wealth is in gold savings.
  • The Silver Standard (Dirham): This is equivalent to approximately 612.36 grams (19.68 ounces) of pure silver.

Which one should you choose?
Most Islamic scholars recommend using the Silver Standard for cash and liquid assets. Since the price of silver is significantly lower than gold, this lower threshold ensures that more people qualify to pay Zakat, thereby providing greater support to the poor and needy. However, if your wealth is strictly in gold, you may use the Gold Standard.

Why Real-Time Rates Are Crucial

The value of precious metals changes daily. Using an outdated fixed rate from last year—or even last month—can lead to underpaying or overpaying your Zakat. QuickNisab allows you to input the exact current market rate for Gold and Silver in your country.

By calculating based on today’s value, you ensure your worship is performed correctly and your contribution to society is just.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Zakat calculated on gross or net income?

Zakat is calculated on your total savings and assets (net wealth) held for one lunar year, NOT on your monthly income. You deduct immediate expenses and debts from your total assets to find the Zakatable amount.

Do I pay Zakat on jewelry?

There is a difference of opinion among scholars. Generally, jewelry used for daily wear is exempt in some schools of thought (e.g., Shafi'i), while others (e.g., Hanafi) consider it Zakatable regardless of use. Jewelry kept purely as an investment/saving is universally subject to Zakat.

When is the best time to pay Zakat?

You simply need to pay it once every lunar year from the day you first reached the Nisab threshold. However, many Muslims choose to calculate and pay during Ramadan to seek the multiplied rewards associated with the holy month.
