Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: A man bought a house with his money, and there were only a few days left before the lunar year of his wealth was completed. He says: May Allah reward you. A man bought a house with his money,
The Shaykh:
He bought it with his money.
The questioner:
Yes, yes.
The Shaykh:
Our house.
The questioner:
He says: A man bought a house with his money, and there were only a few days left before the lunar year of his wealth was completed. Does he sin because he deprived the poor of their right in his wealth when the lunar year was about to end?
The Shaykh:
The few days do not affect the completion of the lunar year. The lunar year is considered complete; the few days and hours do not affect the completion of the lunar year. Therefore, zakah is obligatory on it.
