Your Zakat Calculations for the year 2020Zakat acts as a social safety net for those in need and a means to uplift the entire community. For Muslims, Zakat is done ultimately to increase faith and devotion to God.
Here’s our calculation of your zakat amount based on your investment with Wahed
My lowest portfolio value*: RM 0
Portfolio Value less of Wahed Fees: RM 0
2.5% of Portfolio value: RM 0
Amount of zakat to be paid**: RM 0
Our Zakat Calculation Methodology*
We consider you to be eligible to pay zakat if :
You have an active account for a full-calendar year period (from 1st January 2020 to 31st December 2020), thus completing a full haul.
Your lowest portfolio value in any given month exceeds RM X.XX, the published nisab amount for 2020.
**You are receiving this email because your investments with Wahed have fulfilled the minimum period (haul). The zakat amount calculated here is only applicable to your Wahed investment and does not take into consideration other assets you are holding.
Why is my Zakat amount payable RM 0?
It could be that you have made a full withdrawal during the year. As such your assets with Wahed didn’t fulfil the full Haul period for it to be eligible for Zakat.
Another reason is because based on our Zakat Calculation Methodology, your lowest portfolio value does not exceed the nisab for the year.
What if my family member or friend who uses Wahed didn’t get this Zakat calculation email?
This email is only sent to Wahed Invest Malaysia clients who have funded their accounts for the full Haul period (one calendar year). Those who have not invested with Wahed for the full year, will not need to pay Zakat on their Wahed portfolio holdings and hence they did not receive this email.
I do not qualify to pay zakat as I am not a muslim.
You may ignore the content of this email. However, in the spirit of helping others in need, we are also sharing an Index of available NGOs (provided by HATI) that you may be inclined to support their causes.
Is this mean Wahed will take certain amount from our investment portfolio to contribute zakat?
