Zakah on an orange and fruit farm
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The brother questioner says that he has an orange farm and some fruits. Honorable Shaykh, is there zakah on this farm?
Answer:
There is no zakah on a fruit farm in itself; rather, zakah is on grains and fruits. As for fruits, there is no zakah on them in themselves, but if he sells them and obtains from them an amount that reaches the nisab (the minimum threshold for zakah) and a lunar year has passed over it while he possesses it, then he pays zakah on it by giving one-fourth of a tenth, which is two and a half percent, or twenty-five per thousand. Yes.
