The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Regarding the zakah on grapes, does that mean one waits until they dry out and then pays the zakah?
The Shaykh:
The zakah is obligatory on them, but it is not paid until they are dried. It is not paid on fresh grapes, but rather when they dry out, yes, from the raisins, yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: There are those who say.
The Shaykh:
Like the fruit of the palm tree, it is not taken from fresh dates. The zakah is not taken from fresh dates, but rather from dates, meaning the dried ones, yes.
