The Ruling on Zakah in the Money Obtained from Selling Jewelry
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Umm Fawziyah from al-Hasa sent this question, saying—may the Shaykh be respected—she recalls that she is a divorced woman and has no financial income. She mentions that her husband gives her only a little assistance for herself and her children. She asks: I have started selling from my jewelry, diamonds, and anything else I own. Is there zakah on what I sell?
Answer:
If a lunar year has passed and you have the money, pay zakah on it. If a lunar year has passed on the money, pay zakah on it. But if you spent it before the lunar year completed, there is no zakah on it. Yes.
