Zakah on Land Granted as a Gift
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I have had a piece of land granted to me for ten years and I have not paid its zakah. Is zakah due on it?
Answer:
If you intended it for sale, you must appraise it every year. You assess its value each year it passes and pay one-quarter of a tenth of the value that this land equals, because it has become trade goods. It is commercial and is subject to zakah every year.
