Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: The one who designates the month of Ramadan for water, meaning if he is confused about it, or women’s water, or glorification, and we say even in what he sees from Abu, may Allah have mercy on him, and that he bequeaths to Abu, our relatives, so this year now we strike from it.
Answer:
Yes, there is nothing wrong with it, praise be to Allah. If you set a time for paying the zakah, such as Ramadan of the year, and you pay the zakah on all that you have, whether a lunar year has passed over it or not, there is nothing wrong with that. The one over which a lunar year has passed is known, and the one over which a lunar year has not passed, its zakah is advanced, there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
