The worksheet & categories
Five categories, a total, one deduction and 2.5%. This is the page you spend most of your time on.
The worksheet is the year's main page: five categories, each with its own total, added up into Total assets, less what you owe, times 2.5%.
The five categories
Cash
Bank, Cash in hand and Foreign currency.
For foreign currency you enter the Currency (e.g. GBP, SAR, USD), the Amount held, and the Rate (Rs per unit) — the app converts it. Holding £400 at Rs 350 counts Rs 140,000.
Gold — jewellery and Gold — investment
Both are weights rather than amounts, and they work differently enough to have their own page — see Gold.
Qarza & investment
Money that is out of your hands, or owed by you. Pick the kind:
| Kind | |
|---|---|
| Lent out (diya) | You are owed it — it counts as yours |
| Borrowed (liya) | You owe it — it comes off the total |
| Shares | Units held × Price today |
| Committee | Paid in so far |
| Other | Anything else |
Money you lent has Who beside it, and Mark repaid once it comes back.
Property
Plots and property held as investment. Each has a Full market value and then How much of it is yours? — because plots are so often shared.
Pick All of it, Half, One third, or Other % with your own Your share %. The row then shows the Counted value — your share, not the whole plot.
Sold something? Sold marks it, and it carries a SOLD tag.
The arithmetic
At the bottom:
Total assets
− Loans you took
= Zakat base
× 2.5%Anything still unreviewed keeps the total provisional, and lines tagged NOT COUNTED are excluded on purpose so you can see them without them affecting anything.
Adding something
Add asks What are you adding? with five options: Cash / bank / foreign currency, Gold — jewellery, Gold — investment (bars, coins, nuggets), Loan or investment, and Property or plot.
Each takes a Name (e.g. Bank account, Cash in hand), an Amount, and an optional Description (optional).
