The ruling on the zakah of money used to buy land and then sell it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: I have money subject to zakah, and I set aside a month each year for the zakah of all my wealth, whether or not a lunar year has passed over it. However, this year, before the time came, I bought land for the purpose of trade, and after four months from the purchase, I sold it. How is the zakah calculated on this amount?
Answer:
You should pay zakah on the price of the land and whatever else you have, so that you may be free from liability, if Allah wills. Yes.
