How should zakaat be calculated on inheritance money which one recieves. The money was only recieved several years after the deceased had passed away. Should it be calculated from the day that the deceased passed away or from the time the money was recieved? Will there be a difference if the estate was wound up immediately upon death or if it was wound up a few years later?

It will be calculated/added to the current payable Zakaat assets the time the money was received.
