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?

He must sell some of it and pay the zakat due.

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?

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.

Can we give zakat ul fitr to an authentic muslim orphanage?

Zakat

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

I want to know if we can give zakat to any syed if they are in absolute need.

If they are poor or needy, you can give them.

Here in the mosque they collect money for zakat Al fitr, should I give them money or buy food for them. Please advise me .

If you trust them and they will buy food with it and distribute it before Eid prayer, you can give them money. Kindly refer to the following link(s): https://www.assimalhakeem.net/our-zakat-fitri-can-be-a-money-or-we-should-provide-food/

How to calculate zakat on 22 karat gold ?

Multiply the weight in 22 and divide it by 24. If the result is 85 grams or more, give 2.5% of it as zakat.

If you ask them for the money every year and insist on getting it back and they apologize that they don’t have or refuse to give it back, there is no zakat on it until you receive it! But if you are shy to ask, then you must pay zakat every single year.
