Zakat is mandatory. The stress doesn't have to be.

Every year, the same three things get in the way.

01

"What exactly counts?"

Gold, savings, investments, business assets… the rules differ by school of thought and it adds up fast.

02

"When is my zakat date?"

Your lunar year anniversary is different from the calendar year. Easy to forget, impossible to guess.

03

"Not this again…"

Re-entering all your assets from scratch, every single year. Hours of work that should take minutes.

We built OurBarakah to eliminate all three.
