Zakah on land intended for construction then converted for sale

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if land is purchased with the intention of building, and then that intention changes to selling, is there any zakah on it?

Answer:
If the intention is for sale, it becomes a commodity on which zakah is obligatory. If it is possessed, the intention changes to zakah.
