Question : Regarding the husband who converts to Islam, I mentioned the zakah on the wife's mahr, and she is originally a non-Muslim. How is the zakah calculated on the wife's mahr when she is originally a non-Muslim?
Answer : She is a non-Muslim, so there is no mention of her. Therefore, the example here is not valid unless she converts to Islam, in which case a lunar year begins. A good point to note. In this scenario, it could be the reverse: the husband becomes a disbeliever while she is a Muslim. That is, he was married to her and they were both Muslims, and then he becomes a disbeliever. This is conceivable.
