Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: A sum of money comes to me, and my zakah is due in the month of Ramadan. This sum is in the form of installments. So, when Ramadan arrives, do I give zakah on what I have in hand of these amounts, or do I also give zakah on what is in the hands of people?
Answer:
Yes, when the usual time for your zakah arrives, you give zakah on all the wealth you own, whether it is in your possession or in the hands of people. It is all part of what you own, so it is obligatory for you to give zakah on the whole. You total it all and give zakah of one-quarter of a tenth from it. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
