    Zakat When The Salary Is Variable And Not Fixed

    Posted by Hyder Khan on March 29, 2025 at 2:09 am

    I work in an organization where we are considered “profit sharers”. What it means is that we do not have a fixed salary. When we work more we get more and when we work less we get less (they have a mechanism to see how much a person has generated).

    Now when I am paying zakat should I just see how much I have in my bank and pay 2.5% on it.

    This is because the salary goes directly to the bank and then we spend from it.

    So at the end of a year whatever I have I should pay zakat on it

    My wife has some jewelry. Should I pay 2.5% on it too or it will be calculated differently?

    There are two main heads of Zakat: Production and Wealth.

    Please refer to the following summarized Law of Zakat for understanding of how both heads work:
