  • Zakat When There Is Only Salary And No Savings Involved

    Posted by Ali Abdullah on April 17, 2023 at 12:06 pm

    I have no savings. Although I have a salary of PKR 3.5 lacs per month. Do I have to pay zakat on this salary?

    2.5% Zakat is given on saving after a whole year. However, you have to pay zakat every month deducting the tax amount. Please see for details Discussion 47132.

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