I have a query on zakah from a woman. Her husband is poor and owns a spectacles business, which he opened through taking loans from people. The business is not doing well and he has no savings, and his creditors want their money back. His stock has reached nisab but he does not have the income to pay. Is he still obligated to pay zakah and how without any savings?

Do not repeat you salah. This opens the door to waswaas and OCD and a long painful suffering. If there is any mistake in the tajweed, this does not affect your prayer.

Zakat is fard on me, I want to ask you regarding the Zakat on Cow’s as I have bought 8 cows 4 months back to sell them at the time of Eidul Adha. Do I need to pay Zakat on them and at what rate should I calculate it, is it on the purchase price?

Zakat

Yes, the amount of money you bought it with must have a due date for zakat, once this date is due, calculate the values of these cows along with your cash and give 2.5% zakat on it.

I paid zakat al fitr a week before Eid. But I came to know that its not valid, I have to pay it again as the correct time to pay when people go for Eid Salah. My doubt is, what if I do not find any poor person to pay it at that time. To avoid risk, can I pay it when the Eid day is announced in the evening of last ramadan? Thanks. EID Mubarak in advance to you and your family.

This seems permissible providing they are poor and only these orphans would eat from it and not their teachers and staff.
