Hawl
The full lunar year that wealth must be held above the nisab before zakat falls due on it.
You set a date, usually a day in Ramadan for ease of memory, and pay on whatever qualifying wealth you hold on that date each year. Hanafis fold money that comes and goes during the year into that one date; the other schools start a fresh year for wealth newly acquired. Crops are the exception: their zakat is due at harvest, and buried treasure is due at once.

Suraqah: Horse Sinks
The pursuer's horse sank; he left with a writ of security, and a promise of Kisra's bracelets.
What Allah protects cannot be overtaken by horse or bounty
