Zakat On Unrecoverable Loans
Is zakat due on bad debts and unrecoverable loans?
Zakat is not due on loans disbursed when there is no reasonable expectation of repayment; if the loan is ever repaid, the creditor is obligated to retroactively pay zakat for each of the zakatable years the loan is outstanding.
