How to Calculate Zakat in Pakistan

Zakat is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and is obligatory for every Muslim who meets the necessary criteria of wealth. Our Zakat calculator helps you accurately determine how much Zakat you need to pay based on your assets and liabilities.

What is Zakat?

Zakat is an Islamic financial obligation that requires Muslims to donate a fixed portion of their wealth each year to charitable causes. It serves as a means of redistributing wealth and supporting those in need within the Muslim community.

Zakat Calculation Formula

The standard Zakat rate is 2.5% of your total zakatable wealth that has been in your possession for one lunar year (Hawl) and exceeds the Nisab threshold.

Formula: (Total Assets - Total Liabilities) × 2.5% = Zakat Payable

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Nisab?

Nisab is the minimum amount of wealth a Muslim must possess before they become liable to pay Zakat. There are two common methods to calculate Nisab:

  • Gold-based Nisab: 87.48 grams of gold (7.5 tolas)
  • Silver-based Nisab: 612.36 grams of silver (52.5 tolas)

Many scholars recommend using the silver-based Nisab as it results in more people being eligible to pay Zakat, thus benefiting more recipients.

How do I calculate Zakat on gold & silver?

Zakat is payable on gold and silver that you own as an investment, not including jewelry that you use for personal adornment. To calculate:

  1. Determine the weight of your gold and silver in grams
  2. Multiply by the current market price per gram
  3. Add the value to your other zakatable assets
  4. If your total zakatable wealth exceeds the Nisab threshold, pay 2.5% of the total value

Our calculator automatically fetches current gold and silver prices to make this calculation accurate and up-to-date.

Can I include business inventory in Zakat calculation?

Yes, business inventory is considered zakatable wealth. You should calculate the current market value of all goods you have for sale in your business and include this in your Zakat calculation. Raw materials and finished goods both count toward your zakatable wealth.

When is the best time to pay Zakat?

Zakat should be paid once every lunar year (Hawl) after your wealth has exceeded the Nisab threshold for a full year. Many Muslims prefer to pay their Zakat during Ramadan as the rewards for good deeds are multiplied during this blessed month. However, Zakat can be paid at any time of the year once it becomes due.

Can Zakat be calculated on loans owed to me?

According to most scholars, if you have given a loan to someone and expect to receive repayment, you should include this amount in your Zakat calculation each year. However, if the loan is unlikely to be repaid (bad debt), you may not need to include it. It's best to consult with a qualified scholar for your specific situation.
