The gold that is in daily use is exempt from  zakah. This means that only remaining gold which is not in routine use  is zakatable. If that amount is over and above the <em>nisab<\/em> (exempted amount) only then you need to pay the zakah on it. <\/p>\n<div>As  for the money you have saved you need to pay 2.5% percent of the total  assets. The fact that you are jobless or that you would be spending the  money in a few weeks or months does not take away the obligation.<\/div>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-03-07<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"5946\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
