Question

A female been an house wife and collects the pocket money given by her husband, does she needs to pay zakat on this amount. The pocket money is amount to 2 lakh taka.

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

After deducting her expenses, if she has more than the value of nisab (the minimum amount required to necessitate zakah), then she will have to pay zakah on the money she is collecting.

And Allah knows best

Wassalaamu `alaykum
