Question:
The questioner, Abu 'Abdullah, says: My brother and I combine our salaries. When do we pay the zakah? Is zakah due on salaries? And when?

Yes, each person pays zakah on the total of his salaries once the total reaches the nisab. This is done by setting a specific time in the year to pay the zakah on what has accumulated with you up to that same time in the following year, and so on. Your friend is in the same position as you. Yes.
