Question

A widow has several minor children. He is having a hard time with them. There is no provision for his worldly expenses. His brothers support him. Seeing his plight, the brothers are giving him zakat money. When the elder brother found out about this, he said to the other brothers, "Do you know if the zakat you are paying has any money or jewelry?" Then the brothers said, hey no, where will he get the jewelry? We never saw him wear jewelry. And his family does not go. How can he have money deposited there? After asking the sister, it was found that she had a gold chain weighing 1 anna and two annas. And there is 6 thousand rupees. Now I want to know, can he be given zakat or not? If zakat cannot be paid, then what is the ruling on what has been paid for so many days? Has the zakat payers collected zakat? Will be obliged to inform. 9227163992

Answer

- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -

The value of 6 chains of gold and 7 thousand rupees together becomes more than the value of nesab (fifty and a half tola silver). And zakat cannot be given to such a rich person. Therefore, it is not lawful for him to take zakat while he has that wealth. However, according to the description of the question, since the brothers have so far paid Zakat to him as they deem fit to receive Zakat, their Zakat of the past day has been paid. Note that in the future we have to be careful not to make such mistakes. 5825743438
