Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this is a father who says he is saving money to marry one of his sons, and his question is whether there is zakah on this money?

Answer:
Yes, if a lunar year of possession has passed over it and it is the minimum threshold for zakah or more, you find zakah in it for whatever purpose he wants, for whatever purpose he wants, and he has zakah with him, yes.
