Paying Zakah Before the Completion of the Lunar Year
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
O Messenger of Allah, there is wealth for which the lunar year has passed for a part of it, but not for the whole of it. Is it permissible to pay the zakah of the entire wealth, even if the lunar year has not passed for all of it?
Answer:
No, no, adjusting the zakah is not allowed. I mean, the zakah is not delayed from its time if the lunar year has passed. As for paying it before the time, that is not permissible. Yes.
