Zakaat The Majlis Vol 21 No 01, p.5

I calculate my Zakaat every Ramadhaan. A few days before Ramadhaan I had only R10,000.

Question

I calculate my Zakaat every Ramadhaan. A few days before Ramadhaan I had only R10,000. Then I received R30,000. Do I have to pay Zakaat on the R30,000 as well?

Answer

You have to pay Zakaat on R40,000 even if you had the R30,000 for only a couple of days. Whatever you gain during the course of the year will be Zakaatable provided you have the money at the end of the 12 month period.
