What is a Zakat calculator?

Typically, Muslims calculate and pay their zakat yearly if they meet the wealth threshold, or nisab, for the asset classes they own. They manually calculate the zakat owed per asset before giving their zakat to a Muslim nonprofit organization to distribute to the needy on their behalf.

An online zakat calculator streamlines this process by providing space for all zakatable asset categories to be calculated together on one convenient page. 

Our zakat calculator 2023 considers your total wealth and uses up-to-date pricing on all assets, like gold and silver, and allows you to itemize your calculations by asset category. 

Are There Any Changes for the Zakat Calculator 2023?

No, there are no changes to our zakat calculator 2023.
