Zakat Accounting
Rules
Zakat Accounting Meaning
It mans the calculation,
reviewing and announcing of
Zakat on money .It is
governed by a group of
Accounting rules, extracted
from the sources of Islamic
Shari’ah,
Zakat Accounting Objectives
-
They are as follow:
Determining the Zakat Base .
Calculating the Due amount of Zakat .
Preparing Zakat Statements and Reports .
Distributing Due Zakat amongst

ZAKAT ACCOUNTING RULES
( PRINCIPLES )
Zakat Accounting Rules
are as Follow:
1. The Lunar
Year
Zakat is calculated according to the lunar
year. Counting starts when the amount of
money attains the Nisab (the minimum
amount on which Zakat should be paid).
This includes all kinds of Zakat except
Zakat on agriculture, fruits, mineral assets
and Rikaz (metals found in the
earth).
2. Independence of each
Year:
Each Zakat year is an independent one,
and Zakat on a given amount of money
should not be more than once in the
same year. Duality should be avoided.
The Prophet (Peace be upon him) said:
“No
duality
in
Zakat
giving”.
3
Actual
Growth:
or
Assumed
Actual or assumed growth of an
amount of money is a condition for
any Zakat is to be given from this
money. Therefore, Zakat is not due
on fixed assets or things for personal
use. This is because the condition of
actual or assumed growth would not
be met.
4. Zakat Base should reach
Nisab
Zakat is due on money which is
abounding (more than basic needs). No
Zakat is due for little amounts of money.
The amount of money should reach the
Nisab. This guarantees that only those
who have the capacity of paying will be
obliged to pay.
5. Calculating Zakat on the Total
or Net Zakatable Money
For every kind of money or activity
there is a rule for calculation Zakat
which is due on it. Some are calculated in
relation to the total amount and others
are calculated in relation to the net
amount ( Property).
6. Grouping Money of the Same kinds
together as Zakatable Base:
It is permissible to group cash money of
wealth to cash money available from
offers of commerce and other gained cash
money, so that for all these monies there
would be one Nisab and one Zakat Year.
7. Evaluating Zakatable Money
according to the Current value .
Evaluating cash money of wealth and
cash money from offers of commerce to
define the due Zakat should be according
to the current value at the time of paying
Zakat. They should not be evaluated
according to the historic value, cost or
market, whichever is less.
Equations of
calculating Zakat
They are as follows :
Receptacle of Zakat =
Zakat Base = Zakatable Money
.1
( Assets),( Less ) - Zakatable Liabilities .2
which are due to be paid at the
moment.
2. Zakatable
Money( Assets )=
Assets which meet the conditions of
obligatory Zakat.
3.
Zakatable Liabilities = which are due in
short time.
4. Due
Rate
Zakat = Zakat Base By Zakat
Conditions of Zakatable Money
They are as follows:
a. It should be a full ownership.
b. It should be Growing actually or
assumed
c. The completion of one Lunar
Year except
for Zakat on
agriculture, fruits,
mineral
wealth or Rikaz in earth.
d. Not other kind of Zakat has been
paid on the same
Zakatable Money within the
same year.
e. Zakatable Money should
exceeds Basic
Needs.
f. Zakatable Money should not
include a Debt which is due
at the time.(short term Debts)
g. Zakatabe Base should reach the
(Nisab).
Conditions of Zakatable
Liabilities
They are Short Term Liabilities which are
due payment according to the following
conditions :
a. Liabilities should be related to the
activity.
b. Liabilities should be due payment
during
the
coming
year.
c.
Liabilities should
permissible.
be
legally
Nisab = the minimum amount of
Due Zakat
It is equal to 85 grams of pure gold. A
gram should be evaluated according to
current prices at the time of paying
Zakat in the country in which the
original money is located.
The Amount of Due Zakat
When Zakat Base money once reaches
the Nisab , the Due Zakat is calcuated as
follow : Zakat Base x the price of Zakat.
The Price of Zakat =
Zakat Rate
It varies according to the kind of
money and activity. It ranges
between 2.5% and 20% of Zakatable
Base.
Executive Procedures for
Calculating Zakat
Steps of Calculating Zakat
( Zakat Accounting Procedures )
Zakat should be calculated according
to the following
steps:
1. Defining the date completion the
Lunar year. This date varies
according to the circumstances
of the Zakat giver ( Payer).
With the exception of Zakat on
agriculture, fruits, minerals and
minerals in the earth. In these cases
Zakat should given at time of harvest
or the acquisition of the minerals.
In the case of defending the Lunar year
for the first time, the date of
beginning and the date of completing
should be defined according to the
date
of
reaching
the
Nisab
amount.
2. Different Monies owned by the Zakat
Payer should be assessed at
the end of year according to
the rules of Zakat.
From this money it should be
defined on which Zakat must
be given. They are called
Zakatable Money (
Assets).
3. Assessment of Taxable Liabilities
(deductions) which are due to be
deducted from Zakatable money
according to the rules of
Zakat.
4. Defining the receptacle of Zakat
( Zakat Base ) by the deduction of
Due Liabilities from Zakatable
Money by the following
equation.
The receptacle of Zakat ( Zakat Base ) =
Zakatable Money – Due
Liabilities.
5- Calculating the Nisab as mentioned
before. Each kind of Zakat has a
special Nisab .
6. A comparison should made between
the Zakat Base, defined in
step 4
above, with Nisab defined in step 5.
So as to know whether Zakat is due
or not. If the Zakat Base has reached
the amount of Nisab, then Zakat
would be Due.
7. Define the amount which should be
taken from the receptacle of Zakat
( Zakat Base ), it is as
Percentage % , it
a
is culled the
Price of Zakat ,
It varies from 2,5% to 20% of
Zakat Base
8. Calculating the amount of Zakat by
multiplying the amount of the
receptacle by the amount of the
price (or percentage) of Zakat. The
result should be the amount of due
Zakat.
9. Define who pays the due Zakat a
follow :
a. For individuals and personal
establishments:
The individuals or the owner should pay the
due Zakat.
b. For partnership:
The amount of the due Zakat should
be divided between the partners,
each according to the percentage
ofhis share in the capital of
partnership.
c. For investment companies:
The amount of the due Zakat should
be divided on the number of
shares to know the amount of
Zakat due on each share. Each
investor should then pay Zakat
according to his ownership of
shares.
d. For partnerships of labor and
capital (mudarabah Sahr’iyyah) :
The laborer (Mudarib) pay Zakat
according to his share of profits.
Whereas the financier (Mumawwil)
should pay Zakat on the capital and
the
profit
less
the
laborer’s
share.
10. Zakat Amount should be
distributed according to its duers
in the light of the rules of
Islamic Law
(Shari’ah).
It is permissible to give Zakat to
institutes or committees of Zakat to
redirect the funds in their due
activities and persons according to
Islamic Law (Shari’ah).
Zakat Duers
Zakat Funds should be spent as mentioned
in the Holy Quran:
‫يقول هللا سبحانه وتعالي ‪:‬‬

‫عليها و المؤلفــة قلوبهم وفـــــي الرقـاب و‬
‫الغارمين وفي سبيل هللا وابن السبيل فريضة‬
‫من هللا وهللا عليم حكيم ” ( سورة التوبة ‪) 60 :‬‬
“ Zakat are for the Poor, and the Needly,and

Zakat Accounting
Statement
on Plants and fruits
) ‫)زكاة الزروع والثمار‬
What is meant by agriculture is
anything which comes out of the
earth and is planted by seeds,
from which man, animal and bird
feed. And, by fruits everything
which trees carry which is to be
eaten.
Zakat on agriculture and fruits are
due at the time of harvest or
collecting, according to Allah’s
instruction:
) ‫ ( وآتوا حقه يوم حصاده‬: ‫قال هللا تبارك و تعالي‬
“…but render the dues that are
proper on the day that harvest is
gathered”
(Al-An’am, or Cattle, 141)
Therefore, if an area of land
produces more then one crop within
the year, its owner should render
zakat
on
each
crop
separately.
The following are steps of Calculating
the Zakat of Zakat on agriculture
and fruits and calculating their Due
amounts:
a) Measure the total production of the land
either by production quantity or cash.
b) Define the expenses on the production, if
the opinion adopted is that which says
that expenses should be deduced as far as
they do not exceed the third, which is the
opinion of the Sixth Fiqh Seminar of
Barakah.
c) Define the Zakat Base by deducing
(item b) from the (item c).
d) Define the amount of the Nisab, which is
equivalent to 5 Awsaq, or the equvalent to
50 Egyptian Kaylah, or 653 kg of wheat
d) Define the Zakat Rate according to the
Method of Watering , 5% or 10% .
e) Calculate the amount of Zakat as follows:
- In the case of watering by cost:
Amount of Zakat =
Zakat Base x 5% = ……
- In the case of watering without cost:
Amount of Zakat =
Zakat Base x 10% = ……

An Accounting Statement for
Zakat on Cattle
) ‫)زكاة األنعام‬
What is meant by cattle is camels, cows,
sheep. Zakat is due on them only if they
are bred for multiplication on cattle
differs according to the kind of species.
For camels it is five, for sheep it is forty,
whereas for cows it is thirty. One should
refer to Fikh books for more details.
The following steps should be
followed to assess the receptacle of
Zakat on cattle and to calculate its
value at the end of the year:
a) Define the number of cattle,
deducing the working animals and
the ones ready for trade (for which
there is a different way of
calculating Zakat.
b) Compare the number with Nisab. If
it is less than the Nisab, then no
Zakat is due.
c) Define which category the number
falls into, in order to define the
amount of due Zakat.
d) Define the Zakat due according to
tables in Fiqh books.
We include on next Slide a form for
calculating the Zakat on cattle.

An Accounting Statement for
Zakat on mineral and
marine wealth and minerals in
the earth
) ‫( زكاة الركاز والمعادن‬
Mineral and marine wealth include
anything of value which is brought
out from the earth or the bottom of
rivers, seas or oceans. Minerals in
earth (Rikaz) are treasures which are
buried in the earth.
The Nisab for minerals and marine
wealth is the same as the Nisab for
cash wealth, i.e., the equivalent to 85
grams of gold. On the other hand,
Zakat is due on minerals in the earth
regardless of their quantity. For both
categories there is no need to wait
until a year ends.
The following steps are for
defining the receptacle of Zakat
on
minerals
and
marine
wealth:
a) Define the net production from the
earth or sea, on which Zakat must
be
paid.
b) Compare the net production with the
Nisab (the equivalent to 85 grams of
gold) in the case of mineral wealth.
For Rikaz there is no Nisab.
c) Calculate the amount of Zakat, if the
receptacle reaches the Nisab, the
basis of 2.5% for minerals and 20%
for Rikaz.

An Accounting Statement for
Zakat on revenue of
Fixed Assets
) ‫( زكاة المستغالت‬
It is a Zakat on revenue from
investing Fixed Assets
reoccurring, such as real estate,
cars and others.
No Zakat is due on the actual assets
because they are of the same
category as assets obtained for
establishments (fixed assets). Zakat,
however is due on their revenue once
these revenues reach the Nisab, after
deducing actually paid expenses and
debts which are currently due.
Receptacle of Zakat on investment
assets is calculated by deducing
actually paid expenses and debts
which are currently due from
revenue
Due Zakat is calculated according
to the following steps :
a) Define the total annual revenue
