Question:
One of them says: It is sufficient to pay the zakah of wealth once in a lifetime. Why do we oblige the owners of wealth to pay it every year, when there is no evidence specifying this?
Answer:
Allah is wondrous; there is no evidence specifying this. What a terrible question, and may Allah protect us from that. Zakah is obligatory every year. Whenever a lunar year passes over the wealth, it is subject to zakah. This is the way of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). But this person reads the Qur'an and does not read the hadiths; rather, he produces ideas from his own head, and may Allah protect us from that. Yes.
