How to Pay Zakah on Livestock Intended for Trade
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q115: The questioner says: I raise camels and sheep, and I buy and sell them. When does zakah become obligatory on these animals?
A115: Zakah is due on their value; because they are trade goods, as you mentioned. When a lunar year of possession has passed on the capital with which you bought them, or when a lunar year has passed on them, you must appraise them at the value of their like at the end of the lunar year, and pay one-quarter of a tenth of the appraised value.
