Re: Zakat Question
Zakaat is only fardh on people who remain Saahib-e-Nisaab during one lunar year. that is one has in his/her possessions of atleast 612.36 g of silver or its equivalent in cash or stock or only 87.48g of gold or its equivalent in cash or stock.
Now, there are various situations when one does not remain eligible to pay zakaat (40th part [2.5%] of one’s belongings) …
If the person was saahib-e-nisaab during the whole year till the end of it, then, he/she ought to pay zakaah on whatever belonging is left at the end of the year.
Wallah-O-Alam!
