Question:
He asks: What is the amount of the nisab (minimum threshold for zakah) in riyals for which zakah is obligatory?
Answer:
The nisab. Hmm. The amount for which zakah is obligatory in silver is two hundred Islamic dirhams, which is one hundred and forty mithqals of silver. One hundred and forty mithqals of silver. Or its equivalent in currency exchange. So you ask the money changers how much one hundred and forty mithqals of silver is worth, what is its exchange rate? And you pay what they inform you of, because they are the specialists in this matter.
