Q: I read that there is a difference of opinion whether women see Allah Ta'ala. Some say that they don't see Him at all and some say that they see him but see Him less than men. Is there any evidence that women may not see Allah Ta'ala at all or see Him less than men?

Why are all scholars in agreement that men see Allah Ta'ala but they disagree if women will see Him. Does that mean that a man who committed many sins but after being in hell was admitted to paradise is better than a woman who did not make major sins, as he gets to see Allah Ta'ala more than her and she may not see Allah Ta'ala at all or see Him less?

Q: I received jewellery in different months of the year and gave the zakaat for it only in Ramadaan. Should it be weighed and valued at that gold amount in the specific month it was given to you?

Q: Is it permissible to discharge zakaat every year during the month of Ramadaan?

Q: We are three brothers living in one house but due to some clashes a few years back, two of us decided to move out of that house. We bought some land quickly with the intention of building a house on it. But then things settled down with our third brother and now all three of us are living in the same old house.

For the land that we two brothers bought, we have no immediate plan to build a house and it is there just in case one of us loses his job so he may start a business after selling that land.

Do I have to pay to zakaat on that land as I bought it with the intention of building a house but right now we might sell it in the future if anyone’s financial situation becomes tight?

Q: I gave around 120 grams of gold when I got married to my wife as mahr 5 years back. She wears it 4-5 times a year at weddings. She is a house wife with no income to pay zakaat so I am paying zakaat on her behalf. My questions are:

1. If gold is given as mahr, do we have to pay zakaat over it?

2. As I pay zakaat on her assets due to her having no income, if my wife decides to sell her jewellery, can I ask her to return the amount I paid as her zakaat over the years?
