The ruling on paying zakah in installments over different months

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner also says: Is it valid for me to pay the zakah in installments, paying one installment in Ramadan and one in the month after it, and so on?

Answer:
As you heard, the answer is that this is not permissible. You must pay the zakah immediately when its time comes, deliver it to those who are entitled to it, and not withhold it.
