FAQs
What is Nisab?
Nisab is the minimum amount of wealth a Muslim must possess for a full lunar year before they are liable to pay Zakat. It is defined as the value of 87.48 grams of gold or 612.36 grams of silver.
Why use the Silver standard?
Since the price of silver is significantly lower than gold, using the silver standard results in a lower threshold. This is often recommended by scholars as it allows more people to participate in the blessing of giving Zakat and provides more aid to the needy.
Are personal items included?
Generally, assets used for personal daily living (primary residence, car, clothes, furniture) are exempt from Zakat. Zakat applies to surplus wealth, savings, investments, and business merchandise.
