Simple calculator
Zakat Calculator
Simple mode uses live metal prices, then adds your cash, other zakatable assets, silver, and gold, subtracts your debts and bills, shows both silver and gold minimum values, and calculates 2.5% if zakat is due.
How it works
Think of 24 karat as pure gold. If your jewelry is 18K, divide 18 by 24, so it counts as 75% pure gold. Then multiply that purity by the weight and the gold price per gram. The equation is:
Cash and other zakatable assets count at their full amount. Silver is grams times the silver price per gram. In Simple mode, enter your cash, other assets, silver, gold, and debts or bills. The calculator subtracts those debts and bills, shows both minimum values, and if zakat is due it takes 2.5% of the net total.
Enter money you own, including cash on hand and in bank accounts. Convert foreign cash to the selected currency. Your home, furniture, clothes, personal car, and tools you use for work are not cash. Enter trade goods separately below and gold or silver in their own fields, so nothing is counted twice.
SeekersGuidance: cash and personal property โInclude trade inventory, shares acquired for resale, and loans you expect to recover. Exclude your own car, business equipment in use, and the building value of a rental property; include rental money still held under cash. An asset is not automatically zakatable just because it is not for personal use. Count each asset only once.
SeekersGuidance: assets and exclusions โFor long-term investments, check the zakatable portion rather than automatically entering the whole portfolio value.
SeekersGuidance: long-term investments โDebts and bills
Based on SeekersGuidance: deduct immediately relevant debts and upcoming month expenses. For long-term debts, use the next payment rather than the full loan balance.
Hanafi: include all gold and silver, including jewelry worn for personal use.
Silver
Enter total grams of silver, including jewelry, bars, and coins. Include personal jewelry as well.
Silver value: 0g x $0.00/g = $0.00. Its share of zakat, if zakat is due, is 2.5% of that value: $0.00.
Gold holdings
Enter total grams for each karat, including jewelry, bars, and coins. Advanced mode shows the math for the weight included in zakat.
If you disagree with the fetched gold price, or your jeweler gives a lower buyback price, type whatever price per gram you want to use.

Goldprice.org blocks direct browser requests to its dbXRates endpoint, so this calculator uses Goldprice.dev by default for live gold. It tries the same source for silver, but Goldprice.dev silver is plan-gated on the free API, so it falls back to GoldMarketDaily plus Frankfurter FX when needed. Goldprice.org is still linked as a reference.
Live price details will appear after refresh.
Add your cash and gold to calculate zakat.
