Zakat on 20 Tola Gold

At today's gold rate, 20 tola (233.28g) of gold is worth approximately 8,407,837 PKR — above the gold nisab threshold, so zakat of 2.5% would be approximately 210,196 PKR, assuming this gold is your only zakatable asset.

The commonly-cited gold nisab threshold is 87.48 grams (about 7.5 tola) of gold. If your total zakatable wealth is at or above the value of this much gold, zakat becomes due at 2.5% of your total zakatable wealth — not just the gold portion.

This reference page uses the gold standard, since it's specifically about a gold holding. If you also hold cash, savings, or silver, the silver standard (a lower, more inclusive threshold) is often recommended for mixed holdings — the full calculator below lets you switch between both and add every asset you hold.

No — nisab thresholds and the exact zakat rate are matters of Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh), and different scholars hold different views, most notably on which nisab standard applies to mixed holdings. This is a general reference using commonly-cited figures, not a fatwa — consult a scholar for guidance on your own specific situation.
