The Zakah on Wheat and Its Nisab
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a farm has a large harvest of wheat, how is the zakah on wheat calculated, O Shaykh?
Answer:
When wheat reaches the nisab of three hundred sa' (a dry measure of about 3 kg) using the Prophetic sa', which is approximately three kilograms, the Prophetic sa' is estimated at about three kilograms, then it is subject to zakah. Grains are subject to zakah when they reach the nisab of approximately nine hundred kilograms. In that case, zakah is obligatory on them. If the crops are watered without expense, one-tenth is paid out. If they are watered with expense, half of one-tenth is paid out. Yes.
