Zakat Calculation at RASEEKH Is Completely Free — How Does That Actually Work?
I keep hearing RASEEKH offers free zakat calculation — is it actually free, or is there a hidden catch?
Working out your zakat base on trade goods needs accurate numbers: inventory value, available cash, recoverable receivables, and current liabilities. Pulling those numbers together and working out what's due is a service RASEEKH offers for free, in line with our broader approach of simplifying accounting and tax for business owners before any other commercial relationship comes into it.
The first option is our online zakat calculator: you enter your inventory, cash, receivables, and liability figures, and choose the inventory-valuation approach that fits your situation — cost value, full current listed price, or a tiered valuation based on stock age across three bands. The calculator works out the base and the zakat due automatically across all three scenarios side by side, so you can compare and understand the difference. You can then download a report with the result or have a copy sent to your email — both at no charge.
The second option is booking a direct conversation with our team, especially if your situation is more complex — multiple partners, slow-moving stock, branches across more than one emirate, or bookkeeping that's fallen behind. That consultation is also entirely free, and the goal is to leave with a number you can actually trust, whether or not you go on to use any other RASEEKH service.
One thing worth being clear about: in both cases, our role is strictly the accounting side — pulling the numbers together, applying the formula, and giving you a clear estimate of the base and the amount due. The detailed religious ruling for your specific situation, and who you ultimately pay the zakat to, stays with you and the trusted religious reference you rely on.
