Zakah on Camels and Its Nisab

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh! I have seventeen camels. Do they require a sacrificial animal? The zakah.

The Shaykh:
Yes, from five and above, they require zakah if they are grazing freely for a lunar year or most of it, then there is zakah on them, yes.

The questioner:
He asks: And how much is its zakah in the first year?

The Shaykh:
It was a quarter of a tenth. Yes.

The questioner:
Also, in his last question, he asks: What is the nisab for the zakah on camels? Please advise us, may Allah grant you success?

The Shaykh:
The nisab for the zakah on camels varies, starting from five and above, yes.
