Why does one need to pay Zakat on a pension plan if one does not get access till later ?
Fatawa Question
I have recently setup a SI pension plan account where I can manage the investment but the principal and the gains are not available to me till the age of 55. Is the investment value still Zakatable in the years leading up to age 55 ?
