The ruling on zakah from the wealth of a poor person if it reaches the nisab
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question says: A non-working woman receives money from her parents, brothers, and relatives, and this money comes in, and she may spend some of it. Is there zakah on this money if a lunar year passes over it?
Answer: Yes, if money accumulates with a woman, such as a woman whose father and brothers give her assistance, if a full year passes over it and it is the nisab, then zakah becomes obligatory on it. Likewise, the poor people who ask for charity, if money accumulates with them and a lunar year passes over it, they must pay its zakah, even if they are poor... Or if a poor person asks people and ten thousand riyals accumulate with him and a lunar year passes over it, he pays zakah on it. Likewise, the poor woman who is asking, if she asks and money accumulates with her and a lunar year passes over it, she pays zakah on it, such as one thousand, two thousand, three thousand, and the like, which is a quarter of a tenth. So she is poor in the sense that what she has is not a craft or salary that meets her needs, but she is rich in the sense that she has the nisab with her, so she pays zakah on the nisab that is with her. Yes.
