The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: If a man forgets to pay the zakah on his wealth, then remembers it a month after its due date and pays it, and makes a vow regarding it. The question is: Does he pay it next year at its original time, or at the second time when he remembered it?
The Shaykh:
I begin with myself, what is it?
The questioner:
If a man forgets to pay the zakah on his wealth, and remembers it a month after its due date.
The Shaykh:
He pays it when he remembers it. Allah forgives forgetfulness. Yes.
