What are the rulings on zakah for properties prepared for rental?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there zakah on a house rented out monthly, or on the money when it is received?
Answer:
Zakah becomes obligatory on the rental income if it reaches the nisab (minimum threshold for zakah) and a lunar year of possession has passed. The lunar year begins from the rental contract; so once a lunar year has passed, the rental income is subject to zakah.
