The Zakah on Worn Gold

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, may Allah have mercy on your parents. I have a wife, and I have gold jewelry. Is there any charity due on it, Shaykh? A scholar gave us a ruling that we are required to pay charity on it, and we have had this gold for perhaps four or five years. May Allah have mercy on your parents, Shaykh, and I apologize for the disturbance.

Answer:
By Allah, my brother, the ruling that has been given in this land for a long time is that there is no zakah on gold that is used or kept for use, and this is the opinion of the majority of the scholars. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
