Gold — including jewellery

Gold jewellery is included even if worn. Enter weight and karat; we convert to fine gold. 1 tola = 11.664 g.

Silver — including jewellery

Silver jewellery is also included. Sterling is counted at 92.5% silver.

How This Calculator Works

  • Rate is 2.5% (one-fortieth) on net zakatable wealth.
  • Gold nisab is 7.5 tola (87.48 g). Silver nisab is 52.5 tola (612.36 g).
  • If you have only gold, gold nisab is used. Cash, silver, stock or mixed wealth uses silver nisab.
  • Gold and silver jewellery is included, even if worn.
  • A lunar year (hawl) of owning nisab is required before zakat becomes due.

What Not to Include

  • The home you live in, your personal car, furniture and clothes.
  • Diamonds, pearls and other stones that are not gold or silver, kept for personal use.
  • Tools and equipment of a business that you are not selling.
  • The full remaining mortgage — only instalments and debts due now.

Sadaqat al-Fitr (Fitrana) is separate from this wealth zakat. Give Fitrana before Eid prayer on the Donate page.

This is an estimate, not a personal fatwa. Livestock, crops and complex businesses need a scholar. Spot prices move; jewellery shop rates may differ. Nagina Social Welfare UK (charity 1196514) can receive your zakat for eligible need.
