The amount of gold for which zakah is obligatory
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: What is the amount of gold for which zakah is obligatory? And is it true that there is no zakah on any of a woman's jewelry?
A: In the name of Allah, and all praise is due to Allah. The nisab (minimum threshold for zakah) is (eleven and a half dinars) (twenty mithqals), which is equivalent to ninety-two grams of gold. If this amount is reached and a lunar year of possession has passed over it, it is subject to zakah, whether it is jewelry, currency, or pieces of gold, even if the jewelry is used, according to the correct opinion.
There is scholarly disagreement among the scholars, but the correct view is that there is zakah on gold and silver jewelry, even if it is used, provided it reaches the nisab and a lunar year of possession has passed over it.
