Zakah on University Student Stipends

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: We are university students, and some of us collect these stipends for a year. Is there zakah on them, O Shaykh?

Answer:
Yes, if they reach the nisab (the minimum threshold for zakah) and a lunar year has passed over them, then zakah is due on them at the rate of one-quarter of one-tenth. Yes.
