Question:
This questioner says: I have not paid the zakah on my wealth for fifteen years. What should I do if I repent and want to pay the zakah?
Answer:
You must pay the zakah. You calculate the zakah for the past years, calculate it and pay it out, summarize it and pay it out. Your obligation is not cleared except by doing this, because it is a debt owed to Allah upon you. So you calculate it and pay it out. Yes.
