The answer

is obligatory on gold that reaches the (minimum threshold) and a full hawl (lunar year) has passed on it, which is 100 grams. The amount of Zakat due is two and a half grams (a quarter of a tenth). However, if the gold is in the form of jewelry, there is no Zakat due on it according to the majority of scholars. Zakat becomes obligatory on the owner, even if they are a child, provided the conditions for Zakat are met. The principle is that Zakat should be paid from the same type of wealth.
