Frequently Asked Questions
Nisab is the minimum amount of wealth a Muslim must possess before Zakat becomes obligatory. It is often based on the value of 85 grams of gold or 595 grams of silver.
Zakat is payable on gold, silver, cash, savings, investments, business merchandise, and other liquid assets. Debts owed are subtracted from total wealth.
The standard Zakat rate is 2.5% of the total assessable wealth that exceeds the Nisab threshold.
