A message has reached the program from Najran Al-Khanq, sent by one of the sisters there, saying: fa, noon, 'ayn.
Our sister actually followed up with another message after the first one, and she is asking about a number of issues, among them the issue of zakat on jewelry, if you would kindly address it, honorable Shaykh.
Jewelry made of gold and silver, the scholars have differed about it: is there zakat on it or not? There are two well-known opinions.
The more correct of the two is that there is zakat on jewelry if it reaches the nisab.
If the gold reaches the nisab for gold and silver, it is a mithqal.
And the amount of that in Saudi gold currency is eleven and a half Saudi pounds.
But half is clearer. and a half, and he says three. three. that's correct. But half is clearer for people, three and a half and the difference between them.
Three thirds and a half, that's the text. So if the gold jewelry reaches this amount, eleven and a half or more, then zakat is due on it according to the correct opinion.
From every thousand, two and a half from the wealth.
And that is measured in grams, two in grams. It is measured in the known grams, two.
You call, so if a full year passes with this amount, zakat becomes obligatory, even if it is silver.
If the item is in total weight, like if it reaches one hundred and forty mithqal.
Its value in Saudi riyals is six or five Saudi riyals. This is what is obligatory, because it is confirmed from the Prophet ﷺ that he said: There is no owner of gold or silver who does not pay its zakah.
Except that on the Day of Judgment, plates of fire will be opened for him, and his side and back will be branded with them, as mentioned in the narration.
And this applies to jewelry, whether it is jewelry or not. It is also confirmed from him ﷺ that he.
A woman came with two bracelets of gold on her hand, two gold bangles, and he said: Do you give zakah for this? She said: No.
He said: You will be branded with them by Allah on the Day of Judgment, with two pieces of fire.
So give them for Allah and His Messenger. It is also confirmed that he ﷺ, Umm Salama.
Al-Buraydah wears it made of gold.
This expedition, he said: What reaches the amount for zakat, and zakat is given, then it is not considered a treasure.
This indicates that jewelry is considered.
Is it obligatory for
a woman who pays zakat to give zakat on the jewelry she owns, gold and silver, if it reaches the minimum amount as mentioned before.
