Ali Hammuda – Reviving Ramadan #17 Witholding Zakat Until Ramadan

			Is it better to give my Xikar in the month of Ramadan?
		

			First things first, when a full history Islamic year has passed and the Xikar becomes due, it must
be paint, unless it is this account of course of agricultural crops, which has to be paid on the day
of harvesting because Allah Almighty said to hacker who Yamaha salty he paid to you on the day of
the harvest. Putting that aside for a moment, it is not permissible to delay the paying of Zika
after it has become due, unless you have a valid excuse. Although it's permissible to pay this
account before it is due, by way of hastening it. It was narrated from Ali Robley Allahu anhu, that
the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam asked Allah bass to pay the cat two years in
		

			advance, so that's okay. Secondly, it is true that giving charity in Ramadan
		

			is better than doing so in any other month. If not best, he said that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam was the most generous of people. And he was the most generous during Ramadan when you
believe would meet him to teach him the Quran. So if a person is that care is due in Ramadan, or
it's due after Ramadan, but he or she pays in advance during Ramadan, in order to make the most of
the virtue of paying it in Ramadan, then there's nothing wrong with that. But if you're Zika is due
before Ramadan, say in the month of Rajab and then you delay it, so that you pay it in the Ramadan
for the virtue in that case is not permissible, because you have delayed the cat from when it needs
		

			to be given.
		

			Unless of course, as I said, there is a valid excuse. Thirdly, there may be some reasons why pays a
cat at a time other than Ramadan may be more virtuous than paying in Ramadan.
		

			such as for example, if there is a major disaster or famine in some Muslim country, in this case,
paying it at a time other than Ramadan is preferable.
