The Ruling on the Zakah of an Estate
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. We move on to another questioner. He says, may Allah protect you: Is there zakah on money or an estate?
Answer:
Yes, each person pays zakah on his share, unless the deceased died without having paid the zakah for a past year. If he died without paying it, the zakah is paid on behalf of the deceased, because it is a debt upon him, part of the debts in the estate. So the zakah is paid. Yes.
