Rules about Profits after Paying Zakat

قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع‌ كُلُّ شَيْ‌ءٍ جَرَّ عَلَيْكَ الْمَالَ فَزَكِّهِ وَ كُلُّ شَيْ‌ءٍ وَرِثْتَهُ أَوْ وُهِبَ لَكَ فَاسْتَقْبِلْ بِهِ.

“Abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Whatever you gain by means of assets, pay Zakat thereof and whatever you receive as inheritance or gift, pay Zakat thereof after a year passes.’”

فِي الرَّجُلِ يَكُونُ عِنْدَهُ الْمَالُ فَيَحُولُ عَلَيْهِ الْحَوْلُ ثُمَّ يُصِيبُ مَالًا آخَرَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَحُولَ عَلَى الْمَالِ الْحَوْلُ قَالَ إِذَا حَالَ عَلَى الْمَالِ الْأَوَّلِ الْحَوْلُ زَكَّاهُمَا جَمِيعاً.

‘When one year passes with the first asset, pay Zakat for both assets.’”
