The Zakah on Worn Gold
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I have gold that I wear from time to time, and this happens on special occasions. Is zakah obligatory on it, Honorable Shaykh? Even though I have had this gold for more than thirty years?
Answer:
This depends on the intention. If your intention with this gold is to wear it, and you adorn yourself with it on special occasions, the stronger position is that there is no zakah on it; because it is intended for use and wearing. Yes.
