Rental Income Zakat Calculator

Estimate Zakat on accumulated rental income and related eligible liquid assets after currently due liabilities.

The value of a property held for rental income is not included. Property held for resale or trade may be treated differently and is outside this calculator’s primary scope.

Currency and Nisab

Choose one currency and enter the price or threshold required by your selected basis.

Currency

All monetary amounts must be entered in the selected currency. Changing currency does not convert values.

Nisab basis

Select the basis you intend to use. No option is presented as universally preferred.

Rental income and eligible liquid assets

Blank optional amounts are treated as zero. Use one consistent currency.

Accumulated rental income

USD

Rental income accumulated and still owned at the calculation date.

Rental income in bank accounts

USD

Eligible accumulated rental balances held in bank accounts.

Collectible rent receivables

USD

Rent you reasonably expect to collect.

Other rental-related liquid assets

USD

Other eligible liquid balances related to rental activity.

Eligible currently due rental-property liabilities

Enter only currently due eligible amounts. Do not deduct a long-term mortgage balance in full.

Hawl status

Hawl applicability depends on your circumstances and how the eligible wealth is tracked.

What is commonly included

Accumulated rental income
Eligible rental balances in bank accounts
Collectible rent receivables
Other rental-related liquid assets

What is commonly excluded

Market value of property held solely for rental
Property purchase price or appreciation
Long-term mortgage principal in full

Worked example

Accumulated rent: $18,000.00
Collectible rent: $2,000.00
Other eligible rental balances: $1,000.00
Eligible short-term liabilities: $3,000.00
Net Zakatable amount: $18,000.00
Estimated Zakat at 2.5%: $450.00

The rental property value is excluded. This example assumes Hawl is complete and the selected Nisab threshold is no more than the net amount.
