    5% Or 10% Zakat Applicability On Freelance Work With Initial Expenses

    Posted by Nadeem Akhtar on February 19, 2024 at 8:21 pm

    Salam,

    I am working at remote job as work from home and designated as individual contractor. I arranged my laptop, internet and working facilities by myself. Now please guide if 5% Zakat is applicable in this case or 10%.

    I was paying 10% when was working in regular on-desk job where company was providing working facilities.

    Thanks,

    5 percent zakat is on savings once a year, not on assets of personal use.

    You have to pay 10 percent zakat on the income if it is taxable. The taxes paid are counted as zakat.
