Cash in hand and in bank accounts
Stocks, mutual funds, and other investments
Business inventory and merchandise

Unpaid wages or salaries to staff
Personal loans you are currently paying back

The Concept of Nisab

Nisab is the minimum amount of wealth a Muslim must possess before they are required to pay Zakat. The threshold is usually equivalent to 87.48 grams of gold or 612.36 grams of silver. In modern terms, most scholars recommend using the silver threshold for the benefit of the poor.

Frequently Asked Questions

No, Zakat is not due on your primary residence, your car, or items for personal use like clothes and furniture.

Zakat is paid once every lunar year (Hawl). Many Muslims choose to calculate and pay their Zakat during the month of Ramadan for extra blessings.

Opinions among scholars vary. The Hanafi school generally requires Zakat on all gold and silver jewelry, while other schools may exempt jewelry that is for personal, everyday use.

Zakat cannot be given to your parents, grandparents, children, or spouse. However, it can be given to other relatives (like siblings, cousins, or aunts) if they are in need.
