Question:
If a couple have debtsmust zakat be paid for the gold the wife has?
Answer:
Wa alaik as salam
First of all, you need to understand that even as a couple living together, each spouse is obligated to perform his/her own duties. Debt's incurred by the husband will not be counted as the wife's debts and vice versa.
Secondly, in light of the above, if the debts have been incurred by the husband, he may deduct them from his annual zakah i.e. 2.5% of total zakatable wealth owned by the husband only and give the remainder if any.
The wife has to give zakahseparately. If she has incurred the debts, she may deduct them from the total zakah due on herwealth only. Otherwise she has to give full zakah on her assets including all gold and silver jewelry.
Both their wealth will not be considered as one unless it is jointly owned.
And only Allah Almighty knows best./ - - - :-> Transtors: 1.http://free-translation.imtranslator.net/lowres.asp 2.http://translate.google.com/m?twu=1&hl=en&vi=m&sl=auto&tl=en

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*

Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
