If money is designated for a specific purpose and removed from the ownership of its proprietors such that it cannot return to them, then there is no due on it, because it is considered like an endowment (waqf). However, if it remains under the ownership of its proprietors and can return to them, or if it is in the form of a loan, then zakat is obligatory on it.
