What is Zakat?

Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam. It is a compulsory charity that eligible Muslims must pay annually when their wealth exceeds a certain threshold.

The purpose of zakat is to purify wealth and support those in need.

How Zakat is Calculated

Zakat is calculated using the following formula:

Total Assets – Liabilities = Net Wealth
Zakat Payable = 2.5% of Net Wealth

Assets that are included:

✔ cash & bank savings
✔ gold and silver value
✔ investments & stocks
✔ business assets
✔ rental income savings

Liabilities that are deducted:

✔ outstanding loans
✔ credit card balances
✔ unpaid bills

Personal items such as your home, car, furniture, and clothing are not included.

Zakat on Gold and Silver in UAE

If you own gold or silver, zakat is calculated based on the current market value, not weight alone.

Dubai gold rates change daily, so using the latest value ensures accurate zakat calculation.

Who Needs to Pay Zakat?

Zakat becomes obligatory if:

✔ you are an adult Muslim
✔ your wealth is maintained for one lunar year
✔ your savings exceed the minimum threshold
✔ you are free from immediate debt obligations

If your net wealth is zero or negative, zakat is not required.

When to Pay Zakat

Many Muslims prefer to pay zakat:

  • during Ramadan for increased blessings

  • on a fixed Islamic date each year

  • when their savings complete one lunar year

Paying zakat in Ramadan is common due to the increased spiritual rewards.
