How do you calculate the zakat on your money next Ramadan after you gave your brother a portion of the money in Rajab, and how and when does your brother pay zakat on his money?
This inheritance has two scenarios:
First: If the inheritance has not been distributed, then the share of each heir is considered, and whoever possesses a (minimum taxable amount) must pay its when a hawl (lunar year) passes on their ownership.
Second: If the wealth has been distributed:
- If what was given to the youngest brother was his inheritance, and you have been paying zakat on his behalf in , then its zakat is due in Ramadan. - However, if what you gave him was a gift from you, then its zakat is no longer your responsibility because it has left your possession. He will then start a new hawl with it; whoever acquires wealth that is not built upon existing wealth, such as inheritance, a gift, or charity, begins a new hawl with it.
