Question:
This questioner says: I have a debt with a person, and he has not repaid this debt to me, nor is he able to settle it. I have asked for it many times. As for the zakah on this debt, how do I pay it?
Answer:
Zakah is not obligatory on this until you receive it. Once you receive it, you pay zakah on it for one year, the year of receipt, because initially you do not know whether you will get it or not. Yes.
