Zakah on the profit of a commercial establishment spent before the lunar year has passed
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I rented a commercial establishment, and its net monthly profit is one thousand five hundred riyals. I spend it as soon as I receive it, so nothing remains of it. Is zakah due on it, and what is the amount? I should mention that I rented the establishment already set up, and I did not set up anything in it myself.
Answer:
Zakah is not obligatory on wealth until a lunar year has passed over it. If you spend it immediately before the lunar year has passed, there is nothing due on it.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
