What this sadaqah calculator does

sadaqah (charity) calculator turns your giving intention into clear numbers. Pick a percentage of income or wealth, or a fixed amount, and a frequency — it shows the per-gift, monthly and annual totals.

How the giving is worked out

per gift = percentage × amount (or your fixed amount)
yearly = per gift × times per year
monthly = yearly ÷ 12

So giving 5% of $3,000 monthly is $150 a month and $1,800 a year; a fixed $50 weekly adds up to $2,600 a year.
