Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

According to the Hanafi school, if a person has started the zakat year with the nisab amount, and one year later on the zakat anniversary date, he is below the nisab, then zakat will not be due. So for example, on the 1st of Ramadan 2021, they had nisab, on the 1st of Ramadan 2022 they were below it, and no zakat is due. But if on the 1st of Ramadan 2023, they have the nisab amount, will zakat be due upon them or do they have to wait for the 1st of Ramadan 2024 to see if they have the nisab amount first? Can you provide references from the Hanafi books, please?<\/span><\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Zakah is one of the obligations due upon every Muslim who is an adult, sane and free1<\/sup>, they must also be in possession of wealth which meets the minimum nisab level and be in possession of that wealth for a year.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

One should deduct their necessities, such as rent and living costs, there is no zakat upon property that a person lives in and furniture therein, as well as clothes2<\/sup> and any other necessity that they need day to day from their wealth.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thereafter, once a year has passed from the eligibility, one should calculate the zakat on that day so long as they have wealth above the nisab level. If they don\u2019t then they do not need to pay and will check on the amount they have in another year\u2019s time. The only thing that will affect the eligibility of paying zakat is if they lose everything or become bankrupt3<\/sup> in which case the obligation of zakat is lifted until such a time when they have the nisab level again.<\/span><\/p>\n

Only Allah (\u0639\u0632 \u0648 \u062c\u0644) knows best.<\/span><\/p>\n
