Zakat Calculator

Calculate Zakat due at 2.5% on cash, gold, silver, business assets and investments against the gold or silver nisab.

About this tool

Zakat Calculator is a free, in-browser tool that works out the Zakat due on your wealth. Enter your cash and bank balances, the weight of any gold and silver with a price per gram you supply, business inventory, investments and money owed to you, then subtract short-term debts. Every figure stays in your browser — nothing is uploaded, and all prices are entered by you rather than fetched live.

Zakatable wealth = cash + gold value + silver value + business assets + investments + receivables − short-term debts, where gold value is grams × your gold price and silver value is grams × your silver price. The nisab (minimum threshold) is 85 g of gold × your gold price, or 595 g of silver × your silver price — you choose which basis; the silver nisab is lower and is the more commonly used, more cautious threshold. If your zakatable wealth reaches or exceeds the nisab, Zakat is 2.5% (0.025) of that wealth; otherwise no Zakat is due.

Use it as a planning estimate at the end of your lunar (hawl) year. Prices of gold and silver move daily, so enter current figures for accuracy, and consult a qualified scholar for rulings on specific or complex assets.

Frequently asked questions

What rate is Zakat and what is it charged on?
Zakat is 2.5% (one fortieth) of your net zakatable wealth — cash, gold, silver, business assets, investments and money owed to you, minus short-term debts — provided that total reaches the nisab threshold.
What is nisab and should I use the gold or silver basis?
Nisab is the minimum wealth on which Zakat becomes due: 85 grams of gold or 595 grams of silver, valued at the prices you enter. The silver nisab is usually lower, so it captures more people and is often preferred as the more cautious choice; the tool lets you pick either.
Why do I enter the gold and silver prices myself?
The tool runs entirely offline in your browser and never fetches live market data, so it cannot pull today's prices. Enter the current price per gram for gold and silver in your currency to get an accurate nisab and metal valuation.
Is this a religious ruling?
No. It is an estimating aid for planning your Zakat and is not a fatwa. Rules on assets like pensions, shares, partial-year holdings and debts vary between scholars, so consult a qualified authority for your situation.
