It is not obligatory for the husband to pay the zakah on his wife's jewelry

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: Does the husband have to pay the zakah on his wife's jewelry?

A: It is not obligatory for him to pay the zakah on her behalf, but if he helps her with it and she agrees, there is nothing wrong with it. Otherwise, the zakah is on her for her jewelry, because the hadiths reported on this matter indicate that the zakah is on her, not on her husband.
