Ruling on paying zakah for one who has debts

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q77: The questioner says: A person has a sum of money, and a lunar year has passed over it, and he also has accumulated debts. Is there zakah on this money, given that he has debts to people?
A77: He pays zakah on the money he has, and debt does not prevent zakah according to the stronger position. He pays zakah on his money for which a lunar year has passed in his possession, provided it reaches the minimum threshold for zakah.
