Q: A person bought 250 grams of gold in Dec 2016 and was unable to pay zakaat during the last 4 years. Now he wants to make up for the missed zakaat.
The question is, should he calculate the due zakaat of all 4 years on the current gold rates? Or should he calculate 2017 zakaat on 2017 gold rate, 2018 zakat on 2018 gold rate and so on?
Q:
1. Suppose if I have 75 grams gold, 750 grams silver and some cash in hand and bank. Do I have to calculate separate zakaat of all items or calculate total zakaat.
2. If I have 85 grams gold it is zakaatable. But I have only 75 grams is this gold exempted from zakaat?

Q: My question is about nisaab of zakaat on cash only.
I do not have any thing like gold or silver but just some cash. Please tell me on how much cash will I be liable to pay zakat. Will the nisaab of gold apply as cash is an alternate to gold in banks?
Q: Lately I was informed that on account of the price of the Qurbaani animals increasing in certain places, some scholars have suggested that the Nisaab should change from silver to gold to make it easy for the people so that they will not have to do the Qurbaani. Will it be permissible for one to accept this opinion and pay Zakaat and do Qurbaani only if one possesses wealth that equals the gold Nisaab? The silver Nisaab is 612,36g of silver, which, at present, is approximately R4 764 and the gold Nisaab is 87,48g of gold which, at present, is approximately R50 000. According to this, a lot of people who possess wealth less than R50 000, but more than R4 764 will not have to do Qurbaani and nor will they have to discharge Zakaat.
