The Nisab of Zakah on Gold and the Difference in Purity

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
We know, Honorable Shaykh, that the nisab for zakah is eighty-five grams of gold, or its equivalent in other forms.

The Shaykh:
Ninety-three. Ninety-three, yes, ninety-three grams. This is what is established at the Department of Ifta, yes.

The questioner:
And we ask about fourteen karat or eighteen karat purity. Do we ask?

The Shaykh:
All gold is one; it is not looked at by its purity, but by the fact that it is gold, whether it is good, pure gold or adulterated. Yes.
