Is there zakah in one hundred riyals?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, a questioner asks: Is there zakah in one hundred riyals?

Answer:
What kind of riyals? Silver, or one hundred Saudi riyals? I do not know what is meant. If it is silver, as you know, that is fifty-six Saudi riyals. Or, if you say it is not Saudi, we say that if it reaches one hundred and forty mithqals, then there is zakah; that is the nisab. Yes, or if its value is one hundred and forty mithqals, or if its value in the current currency is what the money changers determine, yes. But I say this is the minimum, and most people have wealth that is not limited to just the nisab, yes.
