Delaying Zakah Beyond Its Time

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q2: We have a large amount of zakah collected. In order to keep the work going, the distribution of some of this money may be delayed beyond the year in which its owner paid it out. Is that permissible, or must it be distributed in that same year?
A2 : It is not permissible to delay zakah beyond its time. The association must take from the zakah only the amount it is able to distribute in its proper time.
