The amount of the nisab for gold and silver in grams

Question:
He asks and says: What is the value of twenty mithqals of gold in grams? We have heard four opinions on this. One says that twenty mithqals of gold equal eighty grams. Another says eighty-five. A third says ninety-two. And a fourth says ninety-six. Which of these is correct? And what is the amount of a silver dirham in grams?

Answer:
The most likely is ninety-two grams. This is the nisab of gold, which is twenty mithqals, and its value in grams is ninety-two grams. This is what we have clarified with the experts, and the fatwa is based on it. Ninety-two grams is the amount of twenty mithqals, the nisab of gold. In terms of the pound, it is eleven pounds and three-sevenths of a pound, meaning: half a pound, because a slight fraction does not matter. Eleven and a half pounds. Eleven and a half pounds is twenty mithqals, which is the nisab of gold. Whether the gold is jewelry or not, zakah is obligatory on it according to the stronger position, even if it is jewelry.
As for the silver dirham, it is half a mithqal, five mithqals. Therefore, the nisab of silver is one hundred and forty mithqals. One hundred and forty mithqals. If you multiply one hundred and forty mithqals by the amount of twenty mithqals, which is ninety-two, it becomes, if every twenty mithqals is ninety-two, meaning: ninety multiplied by seven, resulting in seven hundred grams. Subtract fifty-six from it, and the total becomes six hundred and forty-four grams. This is the nisab of silver: six hundred and forty-four grams. Yes, whoever multiplies seven by, we multiply ninety-two by seven. Yes.
