Welcome to the GB home of ZakatSuite — the fast page for Zakat in United Kingdom, priced throughout in GBP. This short-form page carries the essentials — today's indicative Nisab in GBP (GBP 468 silver, GBP 5,214 gold), a worked example, the practical channels for paying in United Kingdom, Ramadan 2027 dates and the quick links into every calculator with GBP pre-selected. Need the complete method as well? The full United Kingdom guide walks the calculation step by step in GBP.
The arithmetic for United Kingdom starts per gram: gold at GBP 60, silver at GBP 1, from reference prices of USD 76.42/g and USD 0.98/g at 0.78 GBP per dollar. Scaled to the Nisab weights, that is GBP 5,214 for 87.48 grams of gold and GBP 468 for 612.36 grams of silver. Treat the pair as today's guide figures; the binding threshold is the live one on your due date, which the calculators fetch in GBP when you run them.
Take a concrete case in United Kingdom: a resident holds 100 grams of gold — worth about GBP 5,961 at the indicative per-gram price on this page — plus GBP 702 in savings. Combined zakatable wealth is GBP 6,663. That clears the Nisab comfortably and, after a full lunar year, the Zakat is 2.5% of the combined figure: GBP 167. Notice that the gold is not tested against the gold Nisab on its own here — in a mixed portfolio the assets are valued together in GBP and tested once, which is how the calculators on this page proceed.
In practice, the Zakat of most households leaves through the same short list of routes: local Zakat committees that collect and distribute within the community, mosque collections, especially around Jumu'ah and during Ramadan and charity platforms and mobile giving apps. None of these routes changes what is owed — net wealth tested against the GBP Nisab (GBP 468 on the silver standard) and charged at 2.5% — the channel only has to deliver that figure intact, to recipients who are genuinely eligible. For international giving, check the destination is a Zakat fund, not a general appeal, then file the confirmation with the year's PDF report.
In United Kingdom, as everywhere, the test falls on owned, accessible wealth: cash, deposits, gold and silver however held, trading stock, money owed to you, and investments priced in GBP at market value. Personal-use property stays out — the home you live in, your car, furniture and personal effects, and wealth you do not truly own or cannot access. Debts due are deducted before the threshold is applied, and the worked example above shows the shape of it in United Kingdom: 100 grams of gold and a savings balance, combined, tested once, and charged at 2.5% after a hawl.
The Ramadan of 1448 AH is planned from Monday 8 February 2027 in United Kingdom, subject to the sighting of the new moon which local announcements confirm. The closing ten nights begin from Maghrib on 27 February, with Laylat al-Qadr sought on the odd nights (27 February, 1, 3, 5 and 7 March) with the 27th night opening the evening of Friday 5 March 2027. The final fast should fall on 8 or 9 March 2027, with Eid al-Fitr on 9–10 March 2027. The day-by-day table lives in the Ramadan 2027 timetable for United Kingdom — London; remember that Fitrana is due before the Eid prayer, not after it. In London, day one runs from Fajr 05:34 to Maghrib 17:02. Other cities in United Kingdom with their own calendars: Birmingham, Manchester, Bradford, Leeds, Glasgow — browse them all from the Ramadan 2027 timetables index.
At this page's reference price, GBP 5,214 — the value of 87.48 grams of gold at GBP 60 per gram. The live figure moves with the gold market, so recheck it when you calculate — a month-old figure can be wrong in either direction. The gold threshold is the higher of the two Nisabs; it is the relevant one for wealth held purely as gold under all schools.
For money-like wealth in United Kingdom, start with silver (GBP 468) — the threshold the majority of contemporary councils advise, in United Kingdom as elsewhere. Holdings that are gold and nothing else follow the gold Nisab under every school — the disagreement is only about money and mixed wealth. Between GBP 468 and GBP 5,214 the choice is the duty, the choice changes your duty, so it is worth a question to a scholar you trust — the calculator shows both figures so the conversation starts from real numbers.
On your own hawl date: the Hijri anniversary of the day your wealth first reached the Nisab. The lunar year is 354 days, so the Gregorian date moves about eleven days earlier each year. Many people in United Kingdom choose Ramadan for the reward — Ramadan 2027 begins on 8 February 2027 — provided an earlier hawl is not left unpaid in the meantime; advance payment is valid, delay without excuse is not.
Online payment from United Kingdom is well established; what matters is the destination, not the medium. Two conditions govern it: that the recipient is Zakat-eligible under Quran 9:60 and that ownership of the money genuinely passes to them or their appointed agent. Use a platform's Zakat-specific fund where one exists, and note the Hijri date beside the Gregorian one — future-you, reconciling next year's hawl, will be grateful.
Open the Ramadan 2027 timetable for United Kingdom: with Sehri (Fajr), Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Iftar (Maghrib) and Isha for every day from 8 February 2027 onwards. The table is computed for the capital, so distance matters: in a country in the Europe region, local timetables adjust for where in United Kingdom you actually fast.
