Zakat Calculator Oman (OMR)

Welcome to the OM home of ZakatSuite — the fast page for Zakat in Oman, priced throughout in OMR. This short-form page carries the essentials — today's indicative Nisab in OMR (OMR 231 silver, OMR 2,574 gold), a worked example, the practical channels for paying in Oman, Ramadan 2027 dates and the quick links into every calculator with OMR pre-selected. The full guide version of this page, with the step-by-step method, is the Zakat calculator guide for Oman.

Today's Nisab values in OMR (indicative)

At this page's reference prices — OMR 29 per gram of gold and OMR 0 per gram of silver, converted at 0.385 OMR per dollar — the two weights price out as follows for Oman. So the thresholds a saver in Oman watches are OMR 231 (silver) and OMR 2,574 (gold). Treat the pair as today's guide figures; the calculators fetch live prices the moment you use them, and Zakat law judges your wealth against the Nisab of your actual due date, not of the day you happened to read a web page.

A worked example in OMR

Take a concrete case in Oman: a resident holds 175 grams of gold — worth about OMR 5,149 at the indicative per-gram price on this page — plus OMR 347 in savings. Combined zakatable wealth is OMR 5,495. That clears the Nisab comfortably and, after a full lunar year, the Zakat is 2.5% of the combined figure: OMR 137. 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 OMR and tested once, which is how the calculators on this page proceed.

Paying Zakat in Oman: practical channels

In Oman today, most payers hand their Zakat over through a few familiar channels: mosque collections, especially around Jumu'ah and during Ramadan, charity platforms and mobile giving apps and payroll deduction schemes offered by some employers. None of these routes changes what is owed — net wealth tested against the OMR Nisab (OMR 231 on the silver standard) and charged at 2.5% — so pick for reliability: proper identification of eligible recipients, and full transfer of ownership. Payers who give internationally should confirm that the receiving end is Zakat-eligible and not a general appeal, and keep the confirmation alongside the PDF report for that year.

What counts as zakatable wealth in Oman

The zakatable list for a payer in Oman is the universal one — cash in hand and in the bank, savings and deposits, gold and silver in any form, stock bought for resale, business inventory and receivables, investments and crypto at market value — all of it converted into OMR where necessary. What does not count: the home you live in, your car, furniture and personal effects, and wealth you do not truly own or cannot access. Debts due now come off before the Nisab test; and the worked example above shows the shape of it in Oman: 175 grams of gold and a savings balance, combined, tested once, and charged at 2.5% after a hawl.

Ramadan 2027 in Oman

Ramadan 1448 AH should begin on Monday 8 February 2027 in Oman, subject to the sighting of the new moon and the announcement followed locally. Ramadan's last ten nights start with the Maghrib of 27 February 2027, the search for Laylat al-Qadr falling on the odd nights (27 February, 1, 3, 5 and 7 March) and the 27th night falling on the evening of Friday 5 March 2027. The final fast should fall on 8 or 9 March 2027, and Eid al-Fitr on 9–10 March 2027. The day-by-day table lives in the Ramadan 2027 timetable for Oman — Muscat; Fitrana is due before the Eid prayer, not after it. In Muscat, day one runs from Fajr 05:20 to Maghrib 17:58.

Frequently asked questions

What is the gold Nisab in OMR?

At this page's reference price, OMR 2,574 — the value of 87.48 grams of gold at OMR 29 per gram. Gold trades daily, so confirm the amount in the calculator on your due date. For mixed wealth most scholars reach for the lower, silver threshold instead — and for wealth held purely as gold it is the agreed test in every school.

Which Nisab should I use in Oman — gold or silver?

For money-like wealth in Oman, the widely recommended standard is silver — OMR 231 at reference prices — the threshold the majority of contemporary councils advise, in Oman as elsewhere. Wealth held purely as gold is a different case: there, all schools test against the gold threshold (OMR 2,574). Between OMR 231 and OMR 2,574 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.

When is Zakat due for payers in Oman?

On your own hawl date: of the day your wealth first reached the Nisab in Oman. Because a hawl is 354 days, the Gregorian date slides roughly eleven days earlier with each passing year — a payer in Oman who fixed a solar date will drift late without noticing. Many people in Oman choose Ramadan for the reward — Ramadan 2027 begins on 8 February 2027 — but paying in Ramadan does not move a hawl that fell earlier; paying early is permitted, paying late without excuse is not.

Can I pay Zakat online from Oman?

Yes — the channels listed above are exactly how most Zakat now leaves Oman, and online payment changes nothing about the duty itself. Eligibility and transfer are the tests — that the recipient is Zakat-eligible under Quran 9:60 and that ownership of the money genuinely passes to them or their appointed agent. File the receipt with the calculation it settles; the same discipline applies if you also pay from China on wealth held there, and note the Hijri date beside the Gregorian one — future-you, reconciling next year's hawl, will be grateful.

Where can I find Sehri and Iftar times for Oman in Ramadan 2027?

Every day's six times for the capital — Fajr to Isha — are tabulated on the Ramadan 2027 timetable for Oman, starting 8 February 2027. The table is computed for the capital, so distance matters: if you live far from it, allow for your local difference or check your mosque's timetable.
