What is the ruling on designating a specific month for paying zakah?

Question : A person pays zakah on his salary by setting a specific lunar year, such as Ramadan. When Ramadan arrives, if he has any amount, whether small or large, he pays his zakah in Ramadan. What is the ruling on this?

Answer : This is good and there is no harm in it. That is, there is no harm in a person designating a specific month for his zakah. When the month arrives, he counts the money he has and pays its zakah, including that which has not completed a lunar year, because paying zakah early does no harm. This early payment mentioned by the questioner, which I am confirming now, has a benefit. A benefit for whom? A benefit for the poor, because the zakah is paid to them early. Yes.
