Zakah on Fattened Sheep Whose Males Are Sold
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I have sheep that number more than two hundred. I acquired them to increase their number, and I sell their male offspring. They are not grazing freely; rather, I feed them. Is zakah obligatory on them?
Answer:
What you sell of them, you pay zakah on its value. What you sell of them, and a lunar year passes over its value, you pay zakah on it. As for what you have not sold and you are spending on, there is no zakah on it, neither zakah on grazing sheep nor zakah on trade. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
