Is there Zakah due on the property that was expropriated


A: No Zakah is to be paid by your father for the value of this compensation until he receives it, and a Hawl (one lunar year calculated from the time a property reaches the minimum amount upon which Zakah is due) passes since the time of receipt. This is due to the fact that your father was unable to take it when he wished in the past and has just been compensated.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
