Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is there zakah on paper and silver coins? They are coins from many different countries,
Answer:
and I have a hobby of collecting these coins. The coins that are in use, the coins that are in use, these are money; they take the place of gold and silver, and they are subject to zakah if they reach the nisab and a lunar year has passed over them. As for the old coins that are not in use, but are old coins whose circulation has ended, if they are taken as merchandise for buying and selling, they are subject to zakah as trade goods; they are subject to zakah if their value reaches the nisab or more. But if their value does not reach the nisab, there is no zakah on them, because they have taken the ruling of trade goods, trade goods if they are prepared for buying and selling. Yes. May Allah reward you with good.
