The Nisab of Zakah in Wealth and the Amount of the Obligation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu Salih says: Shaykh, what is the threshold at which zakah becomes obligatory, and what is its amount? For example, I have four thousand riyals, and a lunar year has passed over them. How much do I pay in zakah on this amount?

Answer:
There is no need to ask about the minimum amount at which zakah becomes obligatory, as long as you have this amount or more. You pay one-quarter of a tenth, which is twenty-five per thousand, or two and a half riyals per hundred. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
