The Ruling on the Zakah of a Partnership in Two Different Countries

Question : Yes, Shaykh, may Allah bless you. If a person has a partnership with another person in one country involving forty sheep, with the partnership being fifty-fifty, and in another country he also has forty sheep with another man, and the distance between them is more than the distance that allows for shortening the prayer, in two different countries, does this fall under our rule, or does this issue have a specific ruling?

Answer : This is a partnership of descriptions. He owes half a sheep for the forty in the first country, and he owes half a sheep for the forty in the second country.
