Threshold used for Zakaah

How Zakaah is Calculated

  1. 1Add all Zakaatable assets: cash, gold, silver, stocks, trade goods, receivables
  2. 2Subtract outstanding debts and liabilities payable within the year
  3. 3If net assets ≥ Nisaab (silver) and held for a full lunar year → Zakaah is obligatory
  4. 4Pay 2.5% of net Zakaatable assets
  5. 5Silver Nisaab is used (more conservative and protects more people)
