Doubt in Paying the Zakah of Wealth
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: I have wealth that I pay zakah on every year, but I do not know whether I paid its zakah in this last year or not. He asks: Is zakah required of me in that case?
Answer:
Yes, if you are in doubt about paying the zakah, then pay it so that you move from doubt to certainty, because zakah is an obligation, and the obligation must be fulfilled.
