The ruling on paying zakah on sugarcane, sugar beet, and the cotton crop

Question:
This questioner, Hamid Hussein from the Arab Republic of Egypt, says in this question: I am asking about the zakah on sugarcane, sugar beet, and the cotton crop. In our country, these are the main crops. A discussion has taken place among the scholars regarding the zakah on these crops. Some of them claimed, and this is the stronger position, that there is no zakah on them, citing as evidence that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not take zakah except from five crops: wheat, barley, dates, corn, and raisins. The second group held that zakah is obligatory on what is stored. We ask the Honorable Shaykh to clarify this matter for our brothers with evidence and proofs, may you be rewarded.

Answer:
Zakah is obligatory on grains and on fruits. Fruits are like the dates of the palm tree and the raisins from the grape, and grains are like wheat, corn, and millet, and whatever is taken for food. So zakah is obligatory on every measured item that is stored. Every measured item that is stored. Because of his saying (peace and blessings be upon him) He made it obligatory on the stored measured items.
As for the rest of what comes out of the ground, like sugar beet, cotton, vegetables, fruits, and legumes, zakah is not obligatory on these because they are not measured and they are not stored; they are not among the grains nor among the fruits, so zakah is not obligatory on them according to the correct view. However, if he sells them and obtains something from their price, and a lunar year passes over him if he obtains some money from the price of these things and it reaches the nisab, and a lunar year passes over him, then zakah is obligatory on their value. Yes. Yes. May Allah bless you.
