Frequently asked questions
Gold or silver nisab — which should I use?
Many scholars recommend the silver nisab because it's lower and so benefits more people in need; others use gold. Follow the guidance of your scholar or local mosque.
Is zakat due on jewellery I wear?
Scholars differ: the Hanafi school says yes for gold and silver jewellery, while other schools exempt jewellery in normal personal use.
Where do I find today's gold and silver prices?
Check a local bullion dealer or a financial news site for the price per gram in your currency. We don't fetch live prices.
