Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Nisab for gold Zakat?+
Nisab is the minimum threshold: 85 grams of 24K gold (or its equivalent value). If your total gold holdings (at 24K equivalent) equal or exceed 85g, Zakat is due.
What is the difference between Hanafi and Maliki Nisab?+
Hanafi: Nisab can be met by either 85g of gold OR 595g of silver (whichever is lower in value). Maliki/Shafi'i/Hanbali: Only the gold Nisab (85g) applies — silver is evaluated separately.
Is Zakat due on jewelry worn regularly?+
Hanafi school: Zakat is not due on jewelry worn for personal use. Maliki/Shafi'i/Hanbali: Zakat is due on all gold above Nisab including regularly worn jewelry.
What is the Hawl requirement?+
Hawl is the condition that gold must be held for a full lunar year (approximately 354 days) above the Nisab threshold before Zakat becomes due.
How is Zakat calculated on mixed karats?+
Convert all gold to pure (24K equivalent) grams by multiplying each piece's weight by its karat purity ratio (22K: 0.9167, 21K: 0.875, 18K: 0.75), then sum. If total ≥ 85g, calculate 2.5% of total value.
