The zakah of a mother's gold along with her daughters' gold

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a woman has gold and her daughters have other gold, may Allah reward you, if a woman has gold and her daughters have other gold, but the daughters' gold has not reached the nisab (the minimum threshold for zakah), is the daughters' gold combined with the mother's gold to be subject to zakah, or is it not?

Answer:
The Shaykh: No, because the daughters' gold belongs to them and the mother's gold belongs to her. If the daughters' gold does not reach the nisab, there is no zakah on it. As for the mother's gold, if it reaches the nisab, there is zakah on it, though there is scholarly disagreement among the people of knowledge regarding this. Yes.
