Question:
Alsalaam Do I have to pay khums on the money I need to pay the government as tax? For example I have a total of £10000 in my account but £4000 I need to pay the UK government as tax (which will happen after my fixed khums date) So do I calculate khums on the full £10000 or just on the £6000? Walsalaam.
Answer:
If the tax is for the year ending within your date of Khums, then tax is
included in that year's expenses, i.e. remove the 4000 and pay for 6000
only. If the tax is for the next year, then you must pay Khums for the
whole 10000 and pay the tax from the income of next year.
Wassalam.

Answer:
A1. Khums is obligatory once every year. It is 20% of the net savings which
remains with you after spending for your usual lawful expenses.
A2. No need to say the name of the father or mother of the person for whom
you want to pray . Allah (SWT) knows whom you means, and that is enough.
A3. There is no Kaffara but Istighfaar is very important.
