nisab.threshold_idr
85g of gold at today's price. Moves daily, which is the point.
due
Whether net wealth reaches the threshold.
zakat_idr
2.5% of net wealth, or zero below the threshold.
shortfall_idr
How far below the threshold, so a caller can show progress.
assumptions
What the calculation took as given. Zakat has real differences of opinion, so this states its position rather than presenting one school's answer as the answer.

Every failure carries a stable machine-readable code before the human message, and the same meta.request_id the successful responses carry. Quote it and we can find your exact request.

1/1 passing

Every response is timestamped. as_of is when the data was published, age_seconds how old that is now, and next_update_at when newer data is expected.

Three shapes to handle:

  • Up to date200

    The data is inside its published window. The overwhelming majority of requests.

  • Delayeddelayed: true

    Newer data is late. You still get the most recent there is, flagged so you can decide whether to use it.

  • Unavailable503

    Nothing recent enough to serve. Carries Retry-After, and is never billed.
