I know that the nisab threshold is eighty-five grams, so is zakah due on gold used solely for adornment?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. I know that zakah is due on gold when it reaches the nisab threshold of eighty-five grams. Is this zakah due on gold used solely for adornment?

Answer:
If the gold worn by women reaches the nisab, which is ninety-two grams, the scholars have differed on whether zakah is obligatory on jewelry intended for use. If you pay zakah on it, or pay it as a precaution, that is the safest course for your conscience. Yes.
