Zakat on children wealth

Zakat on children's wealth:

Hanafi position:

A minor's monetary wealth (cash, gold, silver, savings) is NOT subject to Zakat. Zakat becomes obligatory only once the child reaches puberty and a full lunar year passes on wealth above Nisab.

(Note: Some other schools hold that a minor's wealth IS zakatable this app follows the Hanafi position.)

Still applies to a minor:

  • ·Ushr on agricultural produce from their land
  • ·Sadaqat al-Fitr (paid by the guardian)

Guardians should begin calculating Zakat once the child reaches puberty.

For your specific situation, please consult a qualified scholar or your local mosque.

And Allah knows best.
