Zakah on land for trade purchased with a loan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: I bought land for the purpose of trade. Half of the amount was from my own funds, and the rest was borrowed. How do I pay the zakah? Do I pay it on the entire land?

Answer:
Yes. If you intend to sell it, and a lunar year has passed, you pay zakah on its value. However, if you intend to keep it as real estate or for residence, there is no zakah on it. Yes.
