Late Payment Of Zakat And Unpaid Zakat Liability
Is late payment of zakat allowed? What is my liability regarding unpaid zakat?
Late payment of zakat is an enormity and any unpaid zakat, even for previous years, must be calculated and paid immediately, accompanied by a sincere repentance; if one is unable to determine exact amounts, one should estimate a bit on the higher side.
