Frequently Asked Questions
Is this Zakat calculator accurate for my school of thought?
Yes. The calculator applies the specific rules of whichever school you select, Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali, Ja'fari, or Ahle Hadees, rather than a single generic formula. Schools genuinely differ on points like whether worn jewelry is zakatable, so picking the right one matters for an accurate result.
What is Nisab, and which standard does this calculator use?
Nisab is the minimum threshold of wealth a Muslim must hold before Zakat becomes obligatory, traditionally set at 87.48g of gold or 612.36g of silver. The calculator supports both the gold and silver standards; most scholars today recommend the silver standard since it results in a lower threshold, meaning more wealth reaches those in need.
Do I have to pay Zakat on gold jewelry I wear?
This is one of the clearest points of difference between schools. Under Hanafi fiqh, jewelry you wear is still zakatable. Other schools generally exempt jewelry kept for personal use rather than investment. Select your school and the calculator applies the correct rule automatically.
Can I deduct my debts before calculating Zakat?
Yes, debts due within the next 12 months can be deducted from your zakatable assets before the Nisab and 2.5% calculation are applied. Long-term debts (a decades-long home loan, for instance) are not deducted in full, only the portion due within the coming year.
How does this calculator handle stocks and mutual funds?
Zakat on shares and mutual funds follows the AAOIFI Standard 35 equity proxy method: if you hold shares for trading, the full market value is zakatable; if you hold them for long-term investment, only the zakatable-asset proportion of the company's own balance sheet applies. The calculator walks you through which case applies to your holdings.
Is my financial data stored?
No sign-up is required to use this calculator, and the figures you enter are used only to compute your result. Personal identifiers are never required to get an answer.
