Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there a mention of the salary?
Answer:
Yes, if a person has some money and a lunar year has passed over it, it is obligatory for him to pay its zakah, whether it is from his salary or from something else, such as wages or earnings. If he has money that reaches the nisab (minimum threshold for zakah) and a lunar year has passed over it, then zakah is obligatory on it at the rate of one-tenth, whether it is from his salary, or from an inheritance, or from a gift, or from anything else. And whether he has saved it for marriage, or to buy a house, or for something else. May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
