What is the value of zakat? Is gold zakat to be paid after one year? Will it be valid if I paid some money before my zakat was one year old? Is it permissible to pay Zakat on a person who has only Nesab amount of gold but it is only two months old? And I had a gold ring, which I sold before I was 1 year old. Do you have to pay zakat on that ring now? 4593154892

- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
According to the current market price (about Rs. 650 / - per gram) the value of silver is Rs. 34,000 / -. Therefore, if a person has that amount of money or if he has gold-silver or money and gold-silver and business goods, then zakat will be obligatory on him. Similarly, if a person has only gold, seven and a half tons of gold or only twenty-two and a half tons of silver, zakat will be obligatory on him. If it is less than this, zakat will not be obligatory. Zakat should be paid if one year has elapsed on the amount of Nesab. So you do not have to pay zakat on the ring that was sold before the end of the year. And the poor are the real beneficiaries of zakat. Therefore, it is not permissible for a person to pay Zakat even if he has more than the required amount of wealth, even if the year has not elapsed. Therefore, zakat cannot be given to the person in question because he has a nesab amount of gold. 4958849919
