Zakah on a Rented House
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I have a rented-out house. Is there zakah on the house itself or on the rent?
Answer:
If you intended the house for sale, you must pay zakah on it every year that passes, because it has become trade goods. But if you intended it for investment and to keep it, renting it out to invest in the rent, then the zakah is on the rent once a lunar year has passed from the start of the contract. Yes.
