Zakah on a Rented House

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: I own a house that is rented out. Is there any zakah due on it?

Answer:
There is zakah on the rent, unless you intend to sell the house and a lunar year has passed while you have been intending to sell it. In that case, you appraise it and pay zakah on it. If you receive rent, you also pay zakah on it once a lunar year has passed over it.
