Calculate Your Zakat with ZakatView πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

Published 19 days agoΒ β€’Β 1 min read

Salam Reader,

We're halfway through Ramadan which means we're also halfway through Zakat season.

If you're like me, you use an online zakat calculator in Ramadan to help determine how much you owe.

In years past, I often found myself jumping between multiple tools, considering varying scholarly opinions, manually calculating individual portions, and eventually piecing it all together.

I wanted a single calculator that simplified this entire process.

So I built ZakatView πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ - a smart Zakat calculator that:

  • Instantly handles complex calculations (with live gold and silver rates).
  • Transparently presents scholarly opinions at each step (click the β“˜ icon at each step for details).
  • Specifically integrates Canadian investment accounts (like RRSPs, TFSAs, RESPs, and FHSAs).

ZakatView also doubles as a learning tool, revealing assumptions typically hidden in standard calculators.

Of course, for complex cases, always consult with a trusted scholar - you can use ZakatView to better prepare for those conversations.

Salam Reader, Nine months ago, I set out to help a few family members write their Islamic Wills. I thought I’d capture the process in a simple article. That’s not what happened. The more I dug in, the more I realized how much was missing from existing resources. Lawyers ensure legal compliance. Imams emphasize justice and equity. As a teacher, I wanted to focus on making the process easier to understand and implement. Wills don’t just distribute assets. They can heal riftsβ€”or deepen them....
