Gold designated for adornment is not subject to , even if unused. This is the view of the majority of scholars. It is not necessary to combine jewelry with cash to complete the zakat . Even if it were held that zakat is obligatory on adornment jewelry intended for use, only cash upon which a hawl (full lunar year) has passed would be combined with it. The mentioned bonus has not yet completed its hawl, therefore it is not to be combined according to either opinion.
