Zakah on Gold Intended for Wearing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A woman asks: Honorable Shaykh, we have gold that is for wearing only, and it has been ten years since we paid its zakah. How do we calculate the zakah for these years, and do we pay it all at once?

Answer:
If it is kept for wearing, there is no zakah on it. Zakah is only due on jewelry kept for trade or for saving. As for what is kept for wearing and adornment, there is no zakah on it according to the majority of scholars. Yes.
