The Zakah on Gold Purchased for Adornment
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I ask you: If I have gold that has reached the nisab (minimum threshold for zakah), and I bought it for adornment, and it is subject to zakah, and I need to sell it if I have a need for that.
Answer:
As for what is for adornment and wearing, there is no zakah on it, just as there is no zakah on other clothing, dwellings, or animals that are used. There is nothing due on them. Zakah is only on jewelry that is intended for trade, buying, and selling. Yes.
