The zakah on land for trade purchased with half of borrowed money

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: I bought some land for the purpose of trade, and half of the amount was borrowed from a friend of mine. How do I pay its zakah?

Answer:
Yes. You appraise it at its value when a year has passed over it. You appraise it at its value and pay its zakah, which amounts to one-quarter of one-tenth. Yes.
