The questioner : May peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you, O honorable Shaykh. I am a man who paid the zakah of my wealth several days before traveling for 'Umrah. Is this permissible, or is it necessary for me to perform the 'Umrah first?
The Shaykh: There is nothing wrong with it. There is nothing wrong with a person paying his zakah before the time it becomes due. It is valid and takes the place of the later payment. Yes.
