Here, the word ‘wealth’ has a very vast meaning. In addition to money, it refers to many other things. A list of ‘wealth-items’ has been given in the form of a chart on page 4.
[2]
A prize bond is a monetary document allowing its holder to qualify for a draw. If the holder wins, he is given the prize money. Prize bonds are common in the subcontinent.

Who is Entitled to Take Zakah?
If he possesses gold or silver in the quantity less than the one stated above, but he has such other things, along with gold and silver, which are considered and counted in
rendering a person Malik-e-Nisab, so the added up total value of all such things will be considered in this case. If the added up total amount of all things is equivalent to the
foregoing amount of 52.5 Tolas of silver, such a person is not also entitled to Zakah. For instance, a person has prize bonds worth 10000 PKR, 5000 PKR in cash and 1 Tola of
gold whose present worth is almost 49500 PKR. When added up, the total amount of all these things reaches 64500 PKR, and the person who owns holdings to this extent is not
entitled to take Zakah. Therefore, Zakah cannot be donated to him.
Likewise, if the amount of gold he possesses is less than 7.5 Tolas but its value is equivalent to the value of 52.5 Tolas of silver, such a person cannot take Zakah. Currently, for
example, the price of just 1.5 Tola of gold is more than that of 52.5 Tolas of silver. [Therefore, if a person possesses 1.5 Tola of gold, he will not be entitled to take Zakah in this
case].

For Further Details
If a person himself is not entitled to Zakah but his children whether boys or girls, who have reached the age of puberty, are entitled to Zakah or his wife is entitled to Zakah, so Zakah
can be donated to them [such children and wife of his].
Zakah-rulings containing book ‘Fatawa Ahl-e-Sunnat’ will soon be published by Maktaba-tul-Madina. Go through Maktaba-tul-Madina’s publications ‘Bahar-e-Shari'at’ volume 1,
part 5, and ‘Faizan-e-Zakat.’ For Shar'i guidance, one can also contact on the following phone number and e-mail address:
Equivalent to the same amount as stated above, he must not also have things surplus to bare necessities of life such as extra furniture, house decorating items.
Shariah has set a particular financial level for a person to be entitled to Zakah. The wisdom in it is that those leading their lives in extreme destitution would be helped out. Exclusive
of debt and all such wealth[1]
being used in [the fulfillment of] Hajat-e-Asliyyah [bare necessities of life], the conditions for a person to be entitled to Zakah [i.e. Shar'i Faqir] include the
following. It is also a precondition for him not to be a Hashmi or Sayyid.
He must not possess 7.5 Tolas of gold. [One Tola is equivalent to 11.664 grams].
He must not own 52.5 Tolas of silver.
He must not possess the amount equivalent to the price of 52.5 Tolas of silver. For instance, on 13 Sha'ban-ul-Mu'azzam 1432 AH, 16 July 2011, the cost of 1 Tola of silver is 1200
PKR [in Pakistan] and thus the amount of 52.5 Tolas of silver is 63000 PKR. Therefore, he must not have as much amount as computed in the instance [i.e. 63000].
Equivalent to the foregoing amount of 52.5 Tolas of silver, he must not have any sort of Mal-e-Nami [for example, merchandise, prize bonds [2]
etc.]
