However, if it is kept for personal use, the majority of the scholars hold that there is no zakah upon it because it was not prepared for increase, though some scholars still obligate zakah as a precaution. ββββββββββββββββββββββ First Question: - If someone used to receive zakah but later became financially independent, is it permissible for them to continue taking zakah because it has become a yearly habit? (02:39 - 02:54) - First Question (02:55 - 04:38) - First Answer β First Answer: - Zakah is not permissible for someone who is rich or who has enough wealth to suffice them for a year. It is only given to those who are poor or in genuine need, so once a person becomes independent of need, it is not lawful for them to continue taking zakah. ββββββββββββββββββββββ Second Question: - Is zakah permissible for a person who has a job but whose salary is not enough to cover his basic needs and family expenses? (04:39 - 04:47) - Second Question (04:48 - 05:14) - Second Answer β Second Answer: - Yes, if a personβs income does not cover his necessary living expenses and the expenses of those he supports, he may receive zakah. Having a salary does not prevent him from taking zakah if the income is insufficient for his needs. ββββββββββββββββββββββ Third Question: - Is it permissible to give zakah to oneβs parents? (05:15 - 05:22) - Third Question (05:23 - 05:56) - Third Answer β Third Answer: - It is not permissible to give zakah to oneβs parents, grandparents, children, or grandchildren. This is because their financial support is already an obligation upon the person if they are in need. ββββββββββββββββββββββ Fourth Question: - Can someone count a debt that another person owes him as zakah by forgiving the debt? (05:57 - 06:12) - Fourth Question (06:13 - 06:47) - Fourth Answer β Fourth Answer: - No, canceling a debt does not count as paying zakah. Zakah must be given directly to the eligible recipients, and merely writing off a debt does not fulfill this obligation. ββββββββββββββββββββββ Fifth Question: - Is it permissible to pay zakah before its due time, such as paying it in Ramadan even though its due date is later in the year? (06:48 - 07:03) - Fifth Question (07:04 - 07:36) - Fifth Answer β Fifth Answer: - Yes, it is permissible to pay zakah in advance if there is a benefit, such as helping people in need or seeking the virtue of Ramadan. However, it is not permissible to delay zakah after it becomes due. ββββββββββββββββββββββ Sixth Question: - Is it permissible to give zakah to charitable organizations or send it to another country?
