Zakat Calculator
Simplify Your Zakat Calculation
Determining your Zakat seems to be a difficult task. However, it isn’t as challenging as you might think of it. All you need to do is categorise your assets and liabilities in a way that makes it convenient for you to calculate Zakat. To make it even more convenient and quick, use our Zakat Calculator to find out how much you need to pay.
AWF Zakat Calculator has simplified the calculation by dividing assets into items to be considered to pay Zakat for (such as gold, silver, cash, savings, and business assets) and deductible liabilities (including debts and other outgoing payments). Using this breakdown, you can easily calculate Zakat.
Once you assess the value of your net assets, you can determine the amount of Zakat owed. It’s crucial to compare your net assets to the nisab threshold to find out whether Zakat is obligatory.

Nisab of Zakat
The Nisab of Zakat is the minimum amount of wealth a Muslim possesses. These assets must be in the possession for over one lunar year to be eligible to pay Zakat. The sum is commonly known as the nisab threshold.
The nisab of Zakat is calculated on the values of Gold and Silver. In 2024, the determined value of nisab is 87.48 grams of gold and 612.36 grams of silver.
