Frequently asked questions

Do I pay Zakat on gold jewellery I wear?

Scholars differ. Many hold that Zakat is due on all gold and silver above nisab, including worn jewellery; others exempt jewellery in normal personal use. Follow the position of a scholar you trust.

What gold price should I use?

Use the current market price per gram for the purity you own (for example 24-carat versus 22-carat), since prices change daily. Some people value jewellery at its scrap/melt value rather than the retail price.
