Zakah on Fed Sheep

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
His second question is that he has rented a courtyard in which there are sheep that he feeds and tends to. Does he owe zakah on them?

Answer:
He does not owe zakah on grazing sheep if he feeds them for the lunar year or most of the lunar year. In that case, he does not owe zakah on grazing sheep. However, if he intends to sell them, they become trade goods, and zakah is obligatory on their value. Yes.
