Zakat Calculator Guide in Tawhid App

1. Open the Tawhid app and go to the Zakat Calculator section
2. You will see the Zakat Calculator screen with a green header: Back arrow (left), title Zakat Calculator (center), and Reset button (right)
3. Below the header is the list of asset categories; at the bottom, a green bar shows Total Assets, Zakat Due, and Currency

• Money: Cash at home, in bank accounts, and equivalent (savings, checking)
• Gold: Gold held as wealth (e.g. bullion, coins, jewelry above personal use)—subject to Nisab and Zakat rules for gold
• Silver: Silver held as wealth—subject to Nisab and Zakat rules for silver
• Investments: Stocks, funds, bonds, and other financial investments held for growth
• Properties: Real estate or property held for investment or sale (not primary residence for personal use)
• Business: Business assets, inventory, and capital used in trade or business
• Agriculture: Crops and produce subject to Zakat (rules may vary by type and irrigation)
• Cattle: Livestock (e.g. camels, cattle, sheep/goats) held for a full year above Nisab
• Precious Stones: Gems and precious stones held as wealth (e.g. diamonds) where applicable
• Other: Any other Zakatable assets not covered above

• Tap a row (or the arrow) to open the detail or input screen for that category
• Enter the value in the currency shown (e.g. 0.00 USD). You can enter amounts for each sub-item if the app supports it
• The main list will show the total for that category (e.g. 0.00 USD) and the bottom bar will update Total Assets and Zakat Due (typically 2.5% of qualifying assets above Nisab)

Each category has an info (i) icon—usually in a circle—on the left. Tapping it opens a short explanation or tooltip for that asset type, including:

• What counts as Zakatable for that category
• Relevant Nisab or conditions (e.g. gold/silver Nisab)
• Any exceptions or scholarly notes

Use these tips to enter your assets correctly and avoid under- or over-paying Zakat.

• Total Assets: Sum of all Zakatable assets you entered (in the selected currency)
• Zakat Due: The amount of Zakat owed—usually 2.5% of the total (or the app may apply Nisab first so Zakat is only on wealth above the threshold)
• Values update as you add or change amounts in any category

1. In the bottom bar, tap Currency (e.g. “USD” with a down arrow)
2. A Select a Currency modal opens with a search bar and a scrollable list
3. Search: Type in the search box (e.g. “dollar”, “pound”, “riyal”) to find a currency quickly
4. List: Each row shows the full name and code (e.g. Afghan Afghani (AFN), Albanian Lek (ALL), Australian Dollar (AUD), US Dollar (USD)) with an arrow to select
5. Tap a currency to select it; the modal closes and the calculator will use that currency for display and possibly for conversion if you enter values in different units

• Tap Reset in the top-right of the Zakat Calculator header
• All category values are typically set back to zero (or blank)
• Total Assets and Zakat Due will reset accordingly
• Currency selection is usually kept so you don’t have to reselect it

Nisab is the minimum amount of wealth above which Zakat is due. It is often defined in terms of gold or silver (e.g. equivalent to 85 grams of gold or 595 grams of silver). If your total Zakatable assets are below Nisab for a full lunar year, no Zakat is due. Tawhid’s calculator and info tips help you apply the Nisab correctly.

Zakat is typically 2.5% of Zakatable wealth that has been held for one lunar year and is above Nisab. Not everything you own is Zakatable—personal use items, primary home, and certain other assets are excluded. The app’s categories and info icons guide you on what to include.

Yes. Tap Currency in the bottom bar, then choose from the “Select a Currency” list (e.g. USD, GBP, AED, AFN, AUD). You can search by name or code. All amounts are then shown in that currency.
