Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, potatoes, carrots, and eggplants are all vegetables.

Answer:
There is nothing in them unless it is intended for sale. If he works in vegetables, buying and selling them, then zakah is obligatory on him. Yes, for trade goods.
