Question:
May Allah bless you. One of the brothers says: I am a young man from Yemen working in Saudi Arabia to earn a living. I have accumulated twenty thousand Saudi riyals and sent them to my father to keep for my marriage. Is zakah due on them?

Answer:
Yes, zakah is due on them every year, provided they reach the nisab (minimum threshold for zakah). In that case, zakah is due every year. Yes.
