Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The ruling on the zakah of gold. We are confused, Shaykh, about worn gold. Some say there is no zakah, and others say that worn gold has zakah. We need a ruling on this, and we thank you, Shaykh. May Allah preserve you. Thank you, Ahmad. May Allah bless you. Hello, thank you.
Answer:
The majority of scholars hold that there is no zakah on jewelry that is worn. The majority of scholars hold this view, and some of the precise scholars make the zakah obligatory on it. So the issue is one of scholarly disagreement. If the woman pays the zakah, that is certainly the safer course for her. Yes.
