Zakat is an integral part of Islam. It is a way to help the poor and needy. If a Muslim has gold, they must give Zakat on it every year. The rule for Zakat on gold is 2.5% of the total gold if it reaches Nisab (minimum amount).
The Nisab for gold is 7.5 tola (87.48 grams). If a person has 10 tola (116.64 grams) of gold, they must pay 2.5% Zakat for it.
To calculate:
10 tola gold = 116.64 grams
2.5% of 10 tola = 0.25 tola (2.91 grams of gold)
If you want to give Zakat in money, check the price of gold. For example, if 1 tola gold = 200,000 PKR, then 0.25 tola = 50,000 PKR. This amount should be given to the poor.
