Frequently Asked Questions
What is the nisab for silver Zakat?
The nisab for silver is 595 grams of pure silver, equivalent to 200 dirhams (approximately 5 awaq). Use our calculator for the current value in OMR.
Is silver nisab lower than gold nisab?
Yes, significantly. Silver nisab (~595g) is worth approximately 14x less than gold nisab (~85g). The Hanafi school uses silver nisab for cash, meaning more people are obligated to pay Zakat.
How is Zakat on silver calculated?
If your pure silver holdings exceed 595g and you've held them for one lunar year, you pay 2.5% of the total silver value as Zakat.
Is an Ibadi calculation method available for Oman?
No. Only the four Sunni school settings are implemented. No school is selected initially for Oman; choose one explicitly if appropriate for you. For Ibadi guidance, consult a qualified local scholar or the official Oman Zakah portal. These external references do not endorse this calculator.
Which nisab does this calculator use?
No basis is preselected for Oman. After selecting a school, check the selected gold (85 g) or silver (595 g) setting in the form. You can change it explicitly. The displayed threshold and result use that selection and available prices in OMR; the calculator compares total wealth with one threshold, not separate metal nisabs.
How are debts treated on this page?
The form applies only the debt setting of the school you explicitly select. No Ibadi debt rule is applied. The selected method and its explanation are shown in the form; consult the methodology and a qualified scholar before including a liability.
