Zakah on the Earnings of a Taxi Driver
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I work as a taxi driver. Is zakah obligatory on me regarding the fare I receive?
The Shaykh:
If a lunar year has passed over it, if a sum has accumulated and a lunar year has passed over it and it has reached the nisab, then zakah is obligatory on you. Or if you add it to your wealth, zakah is obligatory on it following the other.
The presenter:
That is the end.
The Shaykh:
And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad.
The questioner:
The Charitable Dawah Foundation. Calling to Allah is our goal. And philosophers are not limited to one nation, but rather the nation of the nations.
The Shaykh:
Yes, in the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and all his Companions.
The presenter:
It ended with trust.

It is sufficient that we stop at: May Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and all his Companions.
