Zakah on Gold Not Worn
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, is there zakah on gold that is not worn, or on gold that has been kept for a period of time without being worn or put up for sale?
Answer:
As for jewelry made of gold and silver, if it is intended for wearing, there is no zakah on it, even if it is not worn except occasionally or on special occasions. The criterion is the intention; as long as it is intended for adornment, there is no zakah. However, if it is intended for hoarding, or intended for hoarding and trade, then there is zakah on it. Yes.
