Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I bought a camel for ten thousand riyals, and I will sell it if its price rises now or after a period. His question is: Is there zakah on it? And how is its zakah calculated?
Answer:
If you intended it for sale and its value reaches the nisab or more, zakah is obligatory on it, because it has become trade goods. It has become part of the trade goods. Yes. And trade goods are those prepared for sale; these are trade goods. Yes.
