Zakah on Gold and Silver Jewelry in Use
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on the zakah of gold and silver if it is used in jewelry, for example? Is there zakah on it?
Answer:
This is a matter of scholarly disagreement regarding whether zakah is obligatory on jewelry. The school of thought held by the majority is that there is no zakah on jewelry prepared for use, because it is among the items worn and is not prepared for trade, but rather for use. Therefore, there is no zakah in this school of thought, and this is also the ruling issued in fatwas. Yes.
