ruleBessel = {BesselJ[n_Integer, 
     BesselJZero[n_, 
      m_Symbol?
       (Element[#, Integers] && # > 0 &)]] :> 0};

n /: Element[n, Integers] = True;
n /: n > 0 = True;

BesselJ[0, BesselJZero[0, n]] /. ruleBessel

0

Hi,

What do I need to do to make mathematica recognize the following
expression as zero:

BesselJ[0, BesselJZero[0, n]]

Many thanks in advance,

Aaron
