The Ruling on the Zakah of a Debt Owed by a Son
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a woman who says: I am a woman who lent my son a sum of money to buy him a house. He is paying me this amount back in installments. Is there zakah on this amount, which is considered a debt owed by my son?
Answer:
She has mentioned her son. A debt owed by a son, or by anyone else, is subject to zakah, because it is the property of the creditor. Once a lunar year has passed over it, zakah becomes obligatory on it. Yes.
