The Ruling on Zakah in Gold Used for Adornment

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner, Huda from Jordan, says: Honorable Shaykh, regarding gold rings and necklaces, is she required to pay zakah on them?

Answer:
This question concerns jewelry, specifically gold jewelry that a woman wears. It is true that there is no zakah on it, because it is for personal use and is not counted as wealth for growth or trade. It is like clothing and other things a person uses. This is the position of the majority of scholars.
