What is the Zakat nisab in the UK?

The Hanafi nisab is 595g of silver. Multiply by today’s silver price per gram to get the £ threshold. This calculator asks you to enter the current price so figures are never stale.

How much Zakat do I pay?

Zakat is 2.5% of your net zakatable assets (cash, gold, investments, business assets minus short-term debts) once they have been held for one lunar year above the nisab.

How this calculator works

It uses the Hanafi approach common in the UK: 2.5% of net assets above the silver nisab (595g) held for one lunar year. You enter the current silver spot price per gram, so the nisab threshold is always current — the reason this page never shows a baked-in, months-old nisab figure.

Guidance only — consult a scholar or your local mosque for your personal ruling.
