If a person owns only 180 or 199 dirhams worth of silver and has no other zakatable property that must be combined with it, the independent silver nisab is not reached.

This ruling concerns the silver threshold itself. Rules about combining different classes of assets are distinct; the final liability must not always be determined from the weight of silver alone.
