Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I am a young man saving money for marriage, my financial situation is moderate, and a lunar year has passed over it. Do I have to pay zakah on it?

Answer:
Yes, if the lunar year has passed and you have money that you are keeping for the purpose of marriage, and it reaches the nisab (minimum threshold for zakah), then you must pay zakah on it. It is obligatory for you to pay its zakah. Yes.
