Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah reward you. If I endow a property for the poor, is there zakah on its income? If I endow a property for the poor, is zakah obligatory on its income?
Answer:
No, zakah is not obligatory on it, because it is its destination; we distribute it as zakah to the poor. So its income at that time is not subject to withholding, because it is for these poor people.
