Question:
He asks: Is it necessary to pay zakah from the same wealth subject to zakah, or is there no harm in paying the value from other wealth? For example, he says: I have a salary, so I pay from other wealth.
Answer:
Whatever contradicts this, you pay from your wealth. You pay the zakah from your wealth, whether from the same wealth or from other wealth; there is no harm. This is a debt you owe to Allah, so settle it from your wealth. Yes.
