How Gold Calculation Works
- Gold value is calculated by multiplying the weight in grams by the current price per gram for your chosen karat, then adding the making fee if applicable.
- Zakat is due on gold if it reaches the nisab (85 grams of 24K gold or equivalent) and a full lunar year has passed. The rate is 2.5% of the total gold value.
