Abstract: 
In this study, I have shown that the term ( traded monies) is applicable to any money that is retained for the purpose of exploiting its returns. Despite the numerous terms used in this respect, this term (traded monies) is the nearest to the correct meaning because it is the most comprehensive although it was not well-known among our former Jurisprudence scholars due to its rare use during those ages. For this reason, our Jurisprudence scholars did not discuss it in an independent part as they did in the case of commercial commodities upon searching into the jurisprudence reference of various jurisprudence schools we can find out that the obligation of paying almsgiving zakat is the adopted notion many of those who negated its obligation say that almsgiving is obligatory in its return but not in its capital this is what is understood from the saying of jurisprudence schools except few of them for this reason contemporary jurisprudence scholars are in disagreement about the method of almsgiving regarding the traded monies the majority of them say that traded monies must be alms taxed monies are considered as restricted to such types that not be taken as a model unless they are matched together the almsgiving of the tow currencies (gold and silver) require giving 2.5% of the total sum provided that the sum of money reached (84.620gm) of gold and the passage of a complete lunar ( hijri ) year after discounting costs, debts, and other basic affairs.
