Dear Sheikh

I am a muqallid of sayyid Sistani.

1. Is Zakaat payable on cash/bank savings?

2. If yes, at what rate?

3. When is zakaat payable? At a chosen yearly date? Or whenever cash/bank balance is available?

3. If zakaat is paid once on the cash/bank savings, and the cash remains for another year, is zakaat payable on it again?

Any other rulings that apply on cash/bank balance with reference to zakaat?

Salamun Alaykum
There are certain specific things which have obligatory Zakat. As for Mustahab Zakat, it includes everything. Money deposited in bank does not have obligatory zakat. Rather, khums is payable on it, if it is not spent for expenses in a year.
