The Zakah of Livestock Fed Throughout the Year

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We are greatly pleased, our dear viewers, to receive your questions and inquiries via text message on WhatsApp at the number zero five zero one seven eight five five three six. I return to you, Your Eminence Shaykh Salih, to pose the question of the brother Abu 'Ali, who says: I have livestock and I feed them throughout the year, so is zakah due on them?

Answer:
No zakah is due on them. Zakah is only due on grazing livestock that graze for the entire lunar year or most of the lunar year. As for those that are fed, there is no zakah on them as grazing livestock. However, if you obtain money from them by selling them, then you must pay zakah on that money. Yes.
