The Ruling on the Zakah of Oil

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there zakah on oil? And what is the amount that must be paid from it?

Answer:
All oil belongs to the state; it all belongs to the state, and its entire use is for the purposes of zakah. The state spends it on the interests of the Muslims. However, if oil is extracted in your house or on your property, then there is zakah on it, yes. As for the general oil that is under the control of the state, its use is for the purposes of zakah; the state spends it on the interests of the Muslims, yes.
