Zakah on money that remained in the account for several years

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Last year I had one hundred thousand riyals, so I paid the zakah on it, and it was in my account. This year, this hundred thousand is still in my account. Is the zakah due on it again?

Answer:
Without a doubt, whatever passes a lunar year while it reaches the nisab or more, the zakah is due on it, even if it remains with you for years. Yes.
