Determining Zakฤt on Cash

Question: How would one determine the Nisฤb of Zakฤt on cash?

 

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name of Allฤh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 

 

Answer:

The Nisฤb of Zakฤt on cash is determined by the Nisฤb of silver to facilitate for the needy as wealth will reach this level much sooner than the Nisฤb of gold. Therefore, the monetary value of the Nisฤb of silver (which is 612.36g) will determine the Nisฤb of Zakฤt on cash.[1]

Zakฤt on Long Term Loans

Zakฤt on Long Term Loans

7th October 2019

ุงู„ุณู„ุงู… ุนู„ูŠูƒู… ูˆ ุฑุญู…ุฉ ุงู„ู„ู‡ ูˆ ุจุฑูƒุงุชู‡

Question: I understand that loans fall under oneโ€™s personal essentials deductible for Zakฤt. Is there a difference in the rulings between a short-term or long-term loan or are they the same?

 

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆ ู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

Answer

In reference to your particular query, the general principle is that all types of loans personal or commercial are deductible from oneโ€™s personal Zakฤt assets due to two reasons; firstly, because this falls within oneโ€™s essentials and secondly, that the loaned money does not belong to the borrower. So technically, the money belongs to the creditor who is responsible for paying Zakฤt on it [if he is a Muslim that is] since it is their money. He has the legitimate right to demand or use certain measures to retrieve his money whenever he wishes.[1]

The Hanafi jurists discuss deferred debt citing the example of mahr whether it prevents Zakฤt or not. To explain, all immediate mahr โ€“ paid instantly or within 12 months[2] are deductible โ€“ excluded from Zakฤt โ€“ unanimously. Jurists have differed whether deferred mahrยญ โ€“ paid after 12 months โ€“ is deducted from Zakฤt or not. The first opinion is that it too like immediate debt is deductible i.e. there is no Zakฤt on it. The second opinion is that it is not deductible meaning that he must include it amongst his Zakatable assets and pay Zakฤt on it if he has not paid his wife her mahr yet. Some have conditioned that if the husband has no intention of giving it due to the bride not demanding it customarily then it is not deductible but if he has the intention of giving it then it is deductible.[3] Ibn ฤ€bidฤซn Shฤmi rahimahullah, a renowned Hanafi jurist states that evidence exists on both sides but the correct view is that it is not deductible from Zakฤt [regardless if he intends to pay the mahr or not].[4]

Modern methods of transactions have considerably evolved since the ancient past. More people are borrowing larger sums of money for personal needs and pay back the borrowed sum in instalments over a lengthy period of time. Contemporary scholars such as Maulana Khalid Saifullah Rahmani view that all long-term loans are non-deductible for Zakฤt with the application of the deferred mahr rule except the amount paid within the 12 months.[5] This is based on the principle of preferring that which benefits the poor.

Is Qurbani Compulsory upon Someone in Debt?

ุงู„ุณู„ุงู… ุนู„ูŠูƒู… ูˆ ุฑุญู…ุฉ ุงู„ู„ู‡ ูˆ ุจุฑูƒุงุชู‡

Question: Is Qurbani due upon a woman who is in heavy debt? For instance, she has gold worth ยฃ10, 000 but is also in debt of ยฃ10,000?

 

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆ ู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name of Allฤh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

 

Answer:

In principle, Qurbani is wajib (compulsory) upon a mature and sane person who owns 612.36 grams of silver or its equal monetary value or any additional assets equivalent to such value beyond essentials like clothing, accommodation, debt etc during the three days of Qurbani.[1]

In the above case, if such a woman has ยฃ10,000 worth of gold along with ยฃ10,000 debt and no additional assets to the value of 612.36 grams of silver then Qurbani will not be wajib upon her.[2] If however with the debt, she possesses additional assets beyond essentials such as house furniture equal to this value then Qurbani will be wajib upon. It must be remembered that in the case of Qurbani, additional household assets are considered when determining the necessity of Qurbani.

Is Zakฤt compulsory on Savings Towards Purchasing a House?

Question: Regarding Zakฤt, if someone has money in the bank that has been present for over one year, one would normally pay Zakฤt. But if a chunk of the money is designated for paying towards a house later will Zakฤt still need to be paid on that money? The deposit for the house has been given so Insha’Allah the money is designated for that cause. But the exact time when it would be given is not known so it may be after the 1-year deadline for Zakฤt.

 

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆ ู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name of Allฤh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

 

Answer

In reference to your query, the jurists have differed in relation to Zakฤt being due on savings left aside for a specific purpose. The mainstream view is that if the conditions of Zakฤt are met such as one has the nisฤb, a complete lunar year elapses on it and there is no debt that encompasses the full nisฤb then Zakฤt must be paid on any savings,[1] even if the savings are kept for a specific purpose such as purchasing a house. This is because any savings not utilised within the year is considered savings beyond oneโ€™s necessity, in which case it wonโ€™t be deducted when calculating oneโ€™s annual Zakฤt. [2]

Question: Is it permissible to donate optional charity to non-Muslims?

 

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name of Allฤh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

 

Answer:

It is permissible to give optional charity to Non-Muslims. Only Zakฤt cannot be given to them.[1] Based on this, one can even donate optional charity towards Non-Muslim welfare projects such as cancer care projects, building hospitals, orphanages etc.

Fitrฤna for oneโ€™s Child

ุงู„ุณู„ุงู… ุนู„ูŠูƒู… ูˆุฑุญู…ุฉ ุงู„ู„ู‡ ูˆุจุฑูƒุงุชู‡ย 

Question: Is it necessary give Fitrฤna on behalf of oneโ€™s children?

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name ofย Allฤh, the Most Gracious, the Most Mercifulย 

Answer:

With reference to your particular case, as a point of principle, Buloogh โ€“ maturity where obligatory worship becomes necessary – it is not a condition for fitrฤna. Hence, the obligation of fitrฤna rests on a child. The parents or legal guardian must pay it his/her own wealth. If the parent, however, pays it on behalf of their children with their money then that will suffice also.[1]

Question: If a man pays mahr to his wife five years after the marriage, the Mahr being ยฃ1000, must she pay Zakฤt on the previous years also?

In the name of Allฤh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

 

Answer:

In reference to your above question, a woman who has been given her mahr (marriage dowry) of ยฃ1000 after five years since her marriage with him, is only required to pay Zakฤt on it in the year she receives it once a complete lunar year passes on it. She is not liable to pay Zakฤt on this in the previous years.[1]

Answer:

Thank you for your above question, with reference to your particular case, a person who has wealth surplus from the existing one reaching the threshold of Nisฤb, that is beyond his basic necessities such as his house, furniture, clothing and conveyance is considered rich. Such a person cannot receive Zakฤt but must pay Zakฤt upon fulfilling the remaining prerequisites of Zakฤt.[1]

Question: If someone owns a few properties, must he pay Zakฤt on their value or not?

 

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name of Allฤh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Answer:

Thank you for your above question. If a person owns multiple properties and does not intend to use them for business, then he is not be required to pay Zakฤt on any of them. There is no productivity in the properties unless they are used for trading, which is conditional for Zakฤt. Therefore paying Zakฤt on them will not be necessary.[1]

Question:ย Is one allowed to give Zakฤt money by 2-3 years in advanced? I’m aware one is allowed to give before the year ends but my question is can one give ‘few years ahead’?

ุงู„ุฌูˆุงุจ ุญุงู…ุฏุงู‹ ูˆู…ุตู„ูŠุงู‹

In the name ofย Allฤh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Answer:

With reference to your particular case, it is allowed to give advanced payment of Zakฤt by a few years as long as the person possesses the complete Nisฤb at the time of making advanced payments, otherwise not valid. Apart from possessing the complete Nisฤb, there are two other conditions attached; first is that after paying 2-3 years in advance if the wealth fluctuates then at least some portion of the wealth should remain even if less than the Nisฤb rate. If the Zakฤtable wealth reduced to zero then the advanced yearโ€™s payments will not be fulfilled. Zakฤt must be paid again upon reaching the Nisฤb rate of that year. The second condition is that the wealth must reach the Nisฤb level towards the end of the second or third year. If less than the Nisฤb then Zakฤt wonโ€™t be obligatory in which case the advanced payments will become Nafil Sadaqah.[1]
