Determining the Nisab of Paper Currency and How to Pay Its Zakah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q21: The questioner asks: How is zakah paid from coins?
A21: If the coins are made of gold and reach twenty mithqals, which is eleven and a half Saudi pounds, then zakah is due on them; this is their nisab. As for if the currency is made of silver, then if it reaches one hundred and forty mithqals, zakah is due on it. The Saudi Arabian riyal in silver is fifty-six riyals; this is the amount of the nisab.
