Is there zakah on “granted” lands?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you and bless you. This questioner asks: Regarding the lands that are granted and that a Muslim receives, is there zakah on them if they have been with me for more than six years and I have not sold them?

Answer:
If you intend to sell them, if you intend to sell them, they become subject to zakah. So you calculate a lunar year (hawl) from your intention to sell them. If the year passes while you intend to sell them, you appraise them at their value and pay zakah by giving one-fourth of one-tenth of their appraised value. Yes.
