Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Umm Muhammad from al-Ta'if says: I have silver jewelry that I have not used for more than twenty years, and I have not paid the zakah on it. What is the ruling in this matter?
Answer:
If you intend it for use and adornment, there is no zakah on it, even if the period is long. However, if you do not intend to wear it or adorn yourself with it, and you do not lend it to your female relatives who adorn themselves with it, then there is zakah on it if it reaches the nisab. Yes.
