He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding the gold and silver that is traded in this era, it is measured in grams. What is the nisab for it?

By weight, it is considered by weight; if it reaches twenty mithqals, then zakah is due on it. Yes.

And Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if the ring or other items are of gold and silver
