The Ruling on the Zakah of Honey
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The brother Humayd from al-Hudaydah says that he owns a quantity of bees and asks about the honey: is he required to pay zakah on it?
The Shaykh:
It is due on its value, which is what you get from selling it. Yes.
