Zakat Calculator
“And establish prayer and give zakat, and whatever good you put forward for yourselves – you will find it with Allah. Indeed, Allah, of what you do, is Seeing.” (Quran 2:110)
Welcome to our Zakat Calculator, a tool designed to help you determine your Zakat obligation. Zakat is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and is a form of almsgiving to support those in need. Use this calculator to assess your financial position and calculate the amount of Zakat you owe.
What is Zakat?
Zakat is a mandatory charitable giving by Muslims, usually calculated as a percentage of their wealth. It is an essential aspect of Islamic finance and a means of redistributing wealth within the Muslim community. By paying Zakat, Muslims contribute to the welfare of society and fulfill a significant religious duty.
How to Use the Zakat Calculator
The Zakat Calculator allows you to input your various assets and liabilities to determine your net worth. It then calculates the Zakat owed based on the applicable rate (2.5%). Simply enter the values for what you own and what you owe, and click the “Calculate Zakat” button to obtain the result.
Remembering the Purpose
“The believer’s shade on the Day of Resurrection will be his charity.” (Hadith – Al-Tirmidhi)
As you calculate your Zakat, remember the profound impact it can have on the lives of those in need. Your charitable contribution can serve as a shade on the Day of Resurrection, providing comfort and support to the less fortunate.
May your generosity through Zakat bring blessings to both you and the recipients, and may it strengthen the bonds of compassion within our community.
