Zakah on a house offered for sale with hesitation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He says: I own a house and I have offered it for sale, and I am hesitating between selling it and keeping it. Is there any zakah on it?

Answer:
No, as long as you have not decided to sell it. Since you are hesitating, there is no zakah on it. Yes.
