The Ruling on the Zakah of Purchased Sheep

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I bought some sheep a while ago, and I want to ask if there is any zakah due on them?

Answer:
There is a distinction here. If he intends them for use to meet his needs, then there is no zakah on them. But if he keeps them as a grazing flock, grazing for most of the lunar year, and wants to raise them, then there is zakah on them if they reach the nisab. Yes.
