The answer

must be paid promptly upon the completion of the hawl (one lunar year) if the necessary funds are available. It is not permissible to delay it under the pretext of needing the money. The questioner must remind his mother and brothers of their obligations. If they do not respond, then he is only obligated to pay Zakat on his share of the land if it reaches the (minimum taxable amount), and he is not sinful for the actions of others.
