Zakah on merchandise in a commercial shop
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good and bless you. The brother Abu Ibrahim says: Shaykh Salih, I have a commercial shop where the merchandise is valued at fifty thousand riyals, and I sell and buy in this shop, so the stock increases and decreases, and I add to it from the amenities. How is the zakah calculated on it? May Allah reward you.
Answer:
If a lunar year has passed on the value for which these goods were purchased, then you appraise the goods at their current value, then you total them up and pay one-quarter of one-tenth of their total value.
