Nisab of Treasure
Issue No. 1536- The taxable limit of a treasure is 105 mithqāls (362.88 gms) of silver if it is silver and 15 mithqāls [1](51.84 gms) of gold if it is gold. This means that if the value of anything found as treasure is equal to this amount, it will be obligatory to pay khums on it, but if it is less than that, it will not be obligatory to pay khums on it. And if its value is not equal to 15 mithqāls of gold, but is equal to 105 mithqāls of silver, it is still liable to khums, and the same rule applies to the contrary.
