Sheikh, my wife says her mom gave her certain amount of gold which is above nisab level, problem is its not under my possession or under my wife possession, i never know how much they gave her, its not with her right now, its been more than 7months, and i dont think i can exercise full rights on the gold without anyones permission, so in that case am i responsible to pay zakat ?
