The Ruling on the Zakah of Land Offered for Sale
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the brothers says: I bought two pieces of land during a time of prosperity. He says: I wanted to build a private rest house on them, but I needed money and put them up for sale. He says: Do I have to pay zakah on that money?
Answer:
If it remains with you until a lunar year has passed, you pay zakah on it. But if you spend it before a lunar year has passed, there is no zakah on it. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah bless you.
