Q: If jewellery is of unknown metals (unknown carat for example), how do we pay zakaah on it if there is no indication of what it is? If it's gold in colour but unknown what it consists of.
A: If it contains gold and the gold content can be extracted through a smelting process, then zakaat is compulsory upon it despite how many carat it may be. You may refer to a jeweller to find out this.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
