Q 2:
A woman has some jewelry, but her husband has not paid the Zakah (obligatory charity) due on it. Should she pay the Zakah due on the jewelry? If she does not have money to pay the Zakah, must she sell some of the jewelry to pay it?
A:
It is obligatory for the person who owns gold, whether it is used for adornment or not, to pay Zakah on it. This woman should pay Zakah on the jewelry from it or other wealth that she has. It is also permissible for her husband or any other one to pay the Zakah on her behalf with her permission.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
