Not a fatwa

This is a simple estimate. What counts as zakatable (for example jewellery in use, long-term debts, retirement funds) differs between schools of thought. Ask a scholar you trust for your own case. The 2.5% bank deduction rate is the long-standing rate under the Ordinance; the 2026 notice as reported did not restate it.
