Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I have money over which a lunar year has passed, and I remember the month in which I found it, but I do not remember the day exactly. So, is it sufficient for me to pay the zakah on any day of that month?
Answer:
He says: How did you find it? How did you find it? Was it lost property, meaning how did you find it? Or does he say he earned it, meaning he acquired it, but does not remember the day he acquired it? This requires effort. If the lunar year has passed according to his estimate and his strong belief, he pays the zakah. Yes.
