This questioner says: Regarding gold that is prepared for women to use, is there zakah on it?
Answer:
The majority of scholars hold that there is no zakah on it, especially if the woman is poor and owns nothing but this jewelry to adorn herself with. Imposing zakah on her would put her in a difficult position. So there is no zakah on it as long as it is for use. However, if she takes it for wealth or for trade, then there is zakah on it according to the default ruling. Yes.
