❓ Frequently Asked Questions
❓ When is Zakat due?
Zakat becomes due after your wealth has been above the Nisab threshold for one complete lunar year (354 days). You can choose any date as your "Zakat year" anniversary.
❓ Do I pay Zakat on my house?
No, your primary residence is not subject to Zakat. However, if you own additional properties for investment or rental income, the rental income (if saved) is subject to Zakat.
❓ Can I pay Zakat monthly?
Yes, you can pay Zakat in installments throughout the year, but make sure to calculate the full annual amount. Some people prefer to pay monthly to spread the amount.
❓ What if my wealth fluctuates?
If your wealth drops below Nisab during the year but rises above it again, you restart the lunar year count from when it rises above Nisab again.
❓ Can I give Zakat to family?
You cannot give Zakat to your spouse, parents, children, or grandparents. However, you can give to siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, and other relatives who are eligible.
