Guide: Calculating Zakat on Gold (2026)
Calculating Zakat is a pillar of Islam. For residents in Saudi Arabia, staying updated with the current Nisab is essential for accurate fulfillment.
The Nisab for Gold: 87.48 grams (or 7.5 Tolas).
If your gold weight is equal to or more than this, Zakat is mandatory at 2.5% of the total value.
Step-by-Step Calculation:
- Step 1: Determine the total weight of your gold in grams.
- Step 2: Check the current gold price in Riyadh (e.g., 24K, 22K, or 21K).
- Step 3: Multiply the weight by the price to get the total value.
- Step 4: Multiply the total value by 0.025 (2.5%).
Example: If you own 100g of 24K gold valued at 30,000 SAR, your Zakat is 750 SAR.
