سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ وَرِثَ مَالًا وَ الرَّجُلُ غَائِبٌ هَلْ عَلَيْهِ زَكَاةٌ قَالَ لَا حَتَّى يَقْدَمَ قُلْتُ أَ يُزَكِّيهِ حِينَ يَقْدَمُ قَالَ لَا حَتَّى يَحُولَ عَلَيْهِ الْحَوْلُ وَ هُوَ عِنْدَهُ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ismail Bin marrar, from Yunus, from Is’haq Bin Ammar, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ibrahim<sup>asws</sup> (7<sup>th</sup> Imam<sup>asws</sup>), said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about a man who inherited some wealth, and the man was absent, ‘Would there be <span class="iTxt">Zakāt</span> upon him?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘No, until he comes back’. I said, ‘Would he purify when he comes back?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘No, until a year has passed over it and it is in his possession’.
