Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If I endow a property for the poor, is there a ruling for me? Is zakah obligatory on its produce? If I endow a property for the poor, is zakah obligatory on its produce?
Answer:
No, zakah is never permissible from it, because it is itself half of the zakah. So the produce of the endowment does not require zakah, because it belongs to the poor.
