Question:
He says: A man has food, and a lunar year has passed while he possesses the full nisab. Does he have to pay zakah on it, given that he paid his due on the day of the harvest?
Answer:
If he has stored these grains for sustenance and paid their zakah at the time of harvest, then that is sufficient, even if a second lunar year passes, as long as he has stored them for food and consumption. Even if many years pass, the first zakah is sufficient. Only what is exposed for trade is subject to zakah. Everything that is prepared for trade and seeking profit from its price is what is subject to zakah every time a lunar year passes. Yes.
