Zakat Calculator

Work Out Your Zakat

Zakat is 2.5% of the wealth you have held for one lunar year, once it is above the niṣāb. Four steps:

  1. Add up what you own — cash, savings, gold, silver, investments and business stock.
  2. Take away debts that are due now.
  3. Check the balance is at least the niṣāb (the value of 612.36 g of silver, or 87.48 g of gold).
  4. Your zakat is 2.5% of that balance.

This calculator is a guide. For pensions, shares, business assets or other complex cases, please ask a qualified scholar. Read our zakat guide.

Your Wealth (in TZS)

We've filled in an estimate (TZS 3,390,000, the value of 612.36 g of silver as of 3 November 2026 — most scholars recommend the silver value for cash, as it benefits more of the poor). Replace it with today's exact price if you'd like to check it yourself.
