Frequently asked questions
What is the nisab?
The minimum wealth before zakat is due: the value of 87.48 g of gold or 612.36 g of silver. The silver nisab is lower, so many scholars use it for cash so more people qualify.
How much zakat do I pay?
The standard rate is 2.5% (one fortieth) of the net zakatable wealth you have held for one lunar year once it reaches the nisab.
Which assets count?
Cash, gold, silver, trade goods, and the zakatable share of investments and receivables you expect back. Everyday personal items such as your home and car are not counted.
