Zakah on Building Apartments
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Salih, may Allah preserve you, Jar Allah al-Qahatani has a question. He says: I build apartments and sell them for ownership, and the construction period is about six months. Do I have to pay zakah?
The Shaykh:
You pay zakah on the produce that has been in your possession for a lunar year. Whatever you spent before the lunar year completed, there is no zakah on it.
The presenter:
There is no zakah on the capital.
The Shaykh:
The capital: zakah is on its produce. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
