Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And is zakah paid from the oil itself or from its value? And if it is not paid, is it permissible for me to work in a petroleum refinery?
Answer:
There is zakah on it. The state’s oil has no zakah on it; because it is distributed by the one who distributes zakah. And it is permissible for you to work in it; what is the obstacle? Yes.
