Question:

salaam, my next khums date is Feb 2019. can i give khums in advance before my khums date and adjust the amount with the total khums in Feb 2019. For example if i distribute rupees 10000 till feb 2019 and on khums date my total khums is 25000. then i will pay only 15000 as i have already distributed 10000. I am under Agha Sistani taqleed.

Answer:

Wa Alaykum Assalam wr wb
Yes, it is allowed to make a pre payment of Khums if you are sure that the
amount which you give now is not more than the real Khums due on you on the
day of the pre payment, means this amount is already Wajib on you.

Question:

Salaam Alaikum, I would like to clarify Khums paid on money that is gifted or not earnt. My son has had a bank account since he was a baby. We put his child benefit money as well as any birthday/Eid money that he got. He has not earnt any of that money. He only earnt a minimum amount of interest paid into his account. Now that he has turned baligh, do we need to pay any khums on the money in his account? He does taqleed of Agha Seestani. Jazakallah.

Answer:

Wa Alaykum Assalam wr wb
Yes, Khums is applicable on whatever wealth he owns.

Question ID 4185 Tuesday 6th of February 2018

Question:

Salam Aalkium I usally pay khums on 31 January every year. In november last year I paid an ammount of money for insurance, but now I will not be using that insurance anyway. The insurance company will therefore pay my money back. Will I have to pay khums of the money I get back from my insurance? And another question please. Every year the government make a calculation if you get money back due to too much paid tax or maybe you will have to pay tax back because you did not pay enough. The money they give you is based on calculcation for the pervious year. Will I have to pay khums of the money I may get back in this year or will I be paying it on 31. January?

Answer:

1. Every money you own on the date of your Khums must be calculated for Khums including the money which you have with the insurance company or bank or investing company etc.
2. If you get money from them or information that they will definitely give you an amount, Khums will be applicable on your date of Khums.
