Zakat Services – Islamic Society of Baltimore

As an Islamic institution, the Islamic Society of Baltimore / Masjid Al-Rahmah supports the local community by collecting and disbursing Zakat ul Maal to in-need Muslim community members.

How Much Zakat Do I Owe?

Zakat is payable at 2.5% of the wealth one possesses above the nisab.
*The Nisab established by Prophet SAWS was 20 gold dinars (87.48 gm) or 200 silver dirhams (612.36 gm). The scholars have given fatwas regarding the permissibility of using either one. Depending upon which standard you use, your Nisab threshold will be higher or lower.
