Question
I bought something for the house on behalf of my parents, and due to a technical issue, I paid with my own money. I haven't approached my parents to ask them for the money, and I don't plan to do so. Can this be considered as maaser money from the outset?
Answer
Hello,
If you have waived it, it cannot be counted as maaser.
Only money that you can collect can be waived on account of maaser.
