Zakat in Canada
Use CAD consistently and consolidate eligible domestic and international balances with clear assumptions and separate records.
A general Canada overview
An educational estimate may consolidate cash, savings, investments, metals, business interests, and overseas holdings. Religious treatment and tax treatment are separate questions.
Local considerations in Canada
Ownership, foreign-currency assets, investment structures, and business interests may need individual review. This guide does not recommend organizations or address donation credits.
Using CAD
Select CAD where a calculator supports it and enter all monetary amounts consistently in CAD.
The currency selector labels values; it does not automatically convert amounts. The site does not retrieve live exchange rates or live gold or silver prices. Enter any metal price or manual threshold yourself in the same currency.
Understanding Nisab
Nisab is the threshold used in a Zakat assessment. This page does not publish a local Nisab number or automatically select one. Use the Nisab Checker with an existing gold-based or silver-based profile and your own price, or enter a manual threshold where supported. The Nisab guide explains how selected profiles and user-entered values affect the comparison.

Record-keeping guidance
Retain balance and valuation records, any external conversion basis, selected methodology, liabilities, and payment evidence separately where useful.
Methodology, sources, and disclaimer
Review the calculator methodology, sources policy, editorial policy, and disclaimer.
