flag Pakistan raises Zakat threshold to Rs503,529 for 2026, affecting fewer accounts due to higher gold and silver prices.

flag Pakistan has set the 2026 Zakat nisab at Rs503,529, meaning only accounts with balances at or above this amount on the first day of Ramadan will have Zakat deducted. flag The threshold, an 180% increase from last year, reflects rising gold and silver prices. flag Deductions will occur on the official start of Ramadan, expected February 19, with funds deposited into a central account at the State Bank of Pakistan. flag Financial institutions will close on that day to facilitate the process. flag The change significantly reduces the number of accounts subject to automatic deduction.
