Q 2:
How much gold does a woman have to have before she has to pay Zakah on it?
If the gold is owned by a woman, does she have to pay Zakah on it every year or just once? Or is she not obliged to pay Zakah on it at all? What is the ruling on this matter?
A:
If the gold a woman wears reaches the Nisab (the minimum amount on which Zakah is due), whether alone or combined with other items on which Zakah is due, such as gold, silver, and commercial commodities, Zakah is due on it after every lunar year. It is worth mentioning that the Nisab of gold is twenty Mithqals (1 Mithqal = 4.68 grams) and that is worth 11.4 Saudi (gold) riyals.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
