Zakat in brief
Zakat is 2.5% of zakatable wealth that has stayed at or above the nisab for one lunar year. The nisab is 7.5 tola of gold or 52.5 tola of silver; when wealth is a mix of assets, many scholars in Pakistan advise using the lower silver nisab. Gold and silver prices change daily, so enter the day's rate.
Wirasat in brief
Islamic inheritance gives fixed shares to heirs such as spouse, children and parents, and the remaining estate passes to residuary heirs. Debts, funeral costs and any valid will (up to one third, not for an heir) come first. Family situations vary, so confirm the final division with a qualified mufti, and use a succession certificate for transferring bank balances and property.
