I have money, and after ten months I bought land. Does the zakah become due after the completion of the lunar year, or from the beginning of the land purchase?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If I have money and after ten months I buy land, does the zakah become due after the completion of the lunar year, or does it start anew from the purchase of that land?

Answer:
Base it on the lunar year of the money. If you have money and you buy land with it for trade, land for buying and selling, base it on the lunar year of the money. If you bought the land ten days before the completion of the lunar year, you base it on the lunar year of the money. When a lunar year has passed over it, you pay its zakah.
