Question
A lady has eighteen mithqals of gold and one million Iraqi dinars that she is using for an investment with unspecified profit. Is she obligated to pay zakat, and what is the amount?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: The zakat on gold, silver, and money is combined together; because they are of a similar kind. If it reaches the nisab, zakat is due on it, and God knows best.
