Question:
May Allah reward you. The brother says: I want the Honorable Shaykh to issue a ruling for me on the zakah of gold, and what is the stronger position in it, because my mother has had gold for years, but she does not pay its zakah.
Answer:
The gold of a woman that she uses, which she takes to adorn herself with on occasions, the correct view is that there is no zakah on it, and this is the position of the majority of the scholars. In this, hardship is removed from women, especially the poor ones, for either they would be deprived of jewelry, or they would be required to pay the zakah while they are poor, which would force them to refrain from wearing jewelry. Yes.
