Zakat On Unlawful Wealth
Is zakat due on wealth acquired through unlawful sources?
Zakat is due on both one's lawfully and unlawfully acquired wealth, though it is obligatory to eliminate the impermissible portion of one’s wealth, regardless of how long ago it was acquired and whether one did so knowingly, unknowingly, mistakenly or was given to against one's will.
