Zakah on the rent of a rented house
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Shaykh, I have a house that I rent out. Is there zakah on it? I have been renting it out for three years, and I am still renting it out now.
The Shaykh:
The zakah is on the rent, my brother. You pay zakah on the rent. A quarter of a tenth is due on the rent. Yes.
The questioner:
I mean, I pay zakah on the rent that reaches me from the tenant.
The Shaykh:
Where do I pay it?
The presenter:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, thank you, my brother, the caller, Abu 'Abd al-'Aziz,
