What is the ruling on the zakah of gold intended for adornment?

Question:
He asks: Is there zakah on the gold and diamonds that a woman buys for the purpose of wearing as adornment?

Answer:
Look, as for jewelry, if it is made of something other than gold and silver, there is no zakah on it, unanimously. If the jewelry is made of something other than gold and silver, such as diamonds or anything else, and it is worn, there is no zakah on it, unanimously, with no disagreement. However, if it is made of gold and silver, that is where the disagreement among scholars lies. Many scholars say there is no zakah on it because it is worn and not for trade or increase. Some scholars hold that there is zakah on it. If you pay the zakah, or if the woman pays it out of caution and to avoid the disagreement, that is better. Otherwise, we do not see that it is obligatory, because many scholars hold that jewelry which is worn and considered as adornment does not have zakah, as a concession for the woman. Because if she had to pay its zakah every year and she is poor, where would she pay the zakah from? Religion is ease, and praise be to Allah. Allah has permitted her to adorn herself with gold and silver; He has permitted her this. This implies that zakah is not obligatory on it, because it is intended for need and use, and not for increase and earnings. Yes.
