Calculating the value of your gold

 

Gold you Own  x  Latest Gold Price = The Value Of Your Gold
e.g. you own 50 Ounce Gold. The best way to do it to convert it into grams. 50 x 28.3495 = 1417.475 grams

Price of gold 18/07/2016 was £32.62 per gram

 

Finally, take 1417.475g x £32.62p =  £46238.04p

So the Value of your gold is £46238.04p

 

Nissab

 

The amount of wealth which makes one liable for Zakah is called Nisaab. The Nisaab as fixed by Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) is as follows:

 

  Grams Tolas Grains Troy Oz
GOLD 87.48 7.50 1350 2.8125
SILVER 612.36 52.50 9450 19.6875

 

To work out the nissab you need to multiply 87.48g with the latest price of gold (or silver £) £32.62p = will give you the nissab £2854.25p. So if you have £2854.25p or more, whether its gold or cash or business money or business property etc, you are liable to pay 2.5% Zakah from that.

 

Same principal applies for others.

 

As calculated in the above example, you have £46238.04p worth of gold. You also have £5000.00 in your account as saving, and you have £10,000.00 invested in a business. you zakah will be calculated as follows:

 

Gold Value: £46238.04p
Cash in Account: £5000.00
Share in Business: £10,000.00

Total amount Zakah is due on: £61,238.04

2.5%  / 100 x £61,238.04 = £1530.95p

 

Your payable zakah is £1530.95p
