About this tool
Zakat on most cash-like wealth is 2.5% (1/40) of net zakatable assets once nisab is met. This calculator totals the asset classes you enter, subtracts eligible liabilities, then applies 2.5%. It does not invent gold or silver prices, and it is not a salary-tax or PTA handset-tax tool.
How to use
- Enter cash, savings, gold, silver, investments and business assets.
- Enter debts that are eligible to deduct.
- Optionally enter current gold and silver prices per gram to compare with the 87.48g gold or 612.36g silver nisab.
- Read net zakatable amount and estimated Zakat.
Formula and methodology
Net zakatable = cash + bank + gold + silver + investments + business assets − eligible liabilities. Estimated Zakat = net × 0.025. Gold nisab value = 87.48 × price per gram. Silver nisab value = 612.36 × price per gram. Those gram figures are the commonly cited nisab weights; a scholar may advise which nisab to use.
Worked example
Assets of 900,000 minus 50,000 liabilities = 850,000 net. Zakat = 850,000 × 2.5% = 21,250.

Classical rules require wealth at or above nisab for a lunar year. This tool still shows 2.5% of net assets and, if you provide metal prices, whether that net meets gold or silver nisab.
Should jewellery be included?+
