Which one is in Priority? Paying Debts, Zakat, Khums, Kaffara or Nazr
Issue No. 1691- If a person owes khums or zakāt and it is also obligatory for him to pay atonement and also to give 'nadhr' (vow), etc. and he is also indebted and cannot make all these payments, and the property on which khums or zakāt has become obligatory has not perished, he should give khums and zakāt. In case that property has perished, he should give priority to the people’s right as an obligatory precaution, and if such a person dies, and his wealth is not sufficient for all of these debts, the same order should be observed.
