Previously, I never paid Zakatul Fitr even when I was earning some money doing freelance work. My father usually paid it for me before eid, but I think he paid it in the form of cash, which I now understand is not the correct way as we should give food. I personally gave it in the form of food last year. For previous years if it was paid in cash by my father, what should i do?
