Prayer & Calendar Tools

Islamic calendar, prayer times and Qibla. There are 10 free tools here — all running fully in your browser, with live currency conversion, Nisab comparison at 2.5% where applicable, and PDF reports. No account is needed.

Zakat and worship run on the lunar calendar, and this category keeps that calendar practical: Ramadan countdowns, hawl calculators that count the 354 days of your Zakat year, Hijri converters, prayer-time and Qibla references, and planners for Laylat al-Qadr and the nights of Ramadan. The dates matter legally, not just devotionally — your Zakat falls due on a Hijri anniversary, Fitrana has a deadline at the Eid prayer, and Ramadan itself begins with a moon whose predicted date still awaits your community's sighting announcement.

A useful rhythm is to anchor the year with these tools. Note your hawl date in both calendars. As Ramadan approaches — in 2027 it is expected on Monday 8 February, subject to moon sighting — switch to the countdown and timetable pages, plan the last ten nights, and settle Ramadan-specific duties like Fidya and Fitrana with the obligation calculators. The calendar tools and the money tools in this suite are deliberately linked, because in lived Islam the dates and the duties arrive together.

How to choose the right tool

With 10 tools in Prayer & Calendar Tools, the right entry point is the one named for your exact asset or duty: Next Ramadan Countdown for the standard case, Hawl Calendar Calculator where that is the shape of your holding. Specialist tools beat general ones here because their questions are narrower: the Moon Sighting Log, for instance, asks only what its corner of prayer & calendar tools genuinely needs. Run the precise match first, and finish any remaining general wealth in the advanced Zakat calculator, which combines every category into one statement.

There is no penalty for exploring: the 10 tools in this category are all free and private, so open the two nearest matches to your case and read both workings before you settle. Do not split the difference between two methods and pay the midpoint — that figure corresponds to no school's ruling. Choose the method your madhab or scholar supports for prayer & calendar tools, record it in the PDF report, and hold to it next year.

Nisab and rates in this category

The thresholds behind Prayer & Calendar Tools are the same ones used across ZakatSuite: the gold Nisab of 87.48 grams (about USD 6,685 at the indicative reference price of USD 76.42 per gram) and the silver Nisab of 612.36 grams (about USD 600 at USD 0.98 per gram). Where a threshold decides the answer in this category — the Next Ramadan Countdown is the clearest case — the live pricing is not decoration: it is the difference between a duty that exists and one that does not. Calculating in India, for example, the thresholds appear in INR (Indian rupee) — INR 50,109 for silver and INR 558,216 for gold at reference prices — so the comparison on your due date uses that day's values, not a printed table.

Frequently asked questions

Which Prayer & Calendar Tools tool should I start with?

Begin with the closest match to your situation — for most people here that means the Next Ramadan Countdown, which covers the category's commonest case. Narrower tools exist for specific assets and duties, and a precise match beats a general one. Where wealth spans several tools, work through each — the Hawl Calendar Calculator is the usual second stop — and total the results in the advanced calculator.

Are the Prayer & Calendar Tools tools free, and do they need my details?

Free is the whole model here: the 10 tools in Prayer & Calendar Tools ask for figures, never for registration, and nothing you enter is stored on a server. Each result can be saved as a PDF report for your records. The platform applies widely used Shariah principles openly; a case that is unusual for this category — the kind the Moon Sighting Log only partly covers — still belongs in front of a qualified scholar.

Do Prayer & Calendar Tools tools use live Nisab values and prices?

Yes. The Nisab behind every Prayer & Calendar Tools calculation is priced live: 87.48 grams of gold and 612.36 grams of silver converted into your selected currency at current metal prices and exchange rates, with offline fallback data if a feed is unavailable. For a calculation in INR, the live thresholds replace the reference figures quoted on this page (INR 50,109 silver, INR 558,216 gold) with the due date's own — the only version your obligation is judged by.

Can I use Prayer & Calendar Tools tools in India?

Yes — India works with every tool here, as do all 195 countries on the platform. Pick India and the currency becomes INR with a localised Nisab comparison — same method throughout. See the dedicated Zakat calculator for India for the country view, and the Ramadan hub and Ramadan 2027 guides for dates and timetables.
