Nisab Today in EUR
The live zakat threshold in Euro, from today's gold and silver prices (2026-08-13).
How to use these numbers
If your zakatable wealth in Euro — cash in EUR, gold and silver, money owed to you, and business inventory — stays at or above the nisab for one full lunar year, zakat of 2.5% is due. Most scholars recommend checking against the lower silver figure (1,071 EUR today) so that zakat reaches more people.

Frequently asked questions
What is the nisab in EUR today?+
Using the gold standard (85 g of pure gold), today's nisab is about 10,314 EUR. Using the silver standard (595 g) it is about 1,071 EUR. Figures refresh daily with metal prices and the EUR exchange rate.
Gold or silver standard — which should I use?+
Most scholars recommend the silver nisab because it is lower — zakat becomes due sooner and more of the poor benefit. The gold standard is also valid.
Why does the nisab in Euro change?+
Two moving parts: the global gold/silver price, and the EUR exchange rate. Both update daily, so a nisab figure published months ago can be far off — this page always shows today's value.
