If one owns twenty camels in Muharram, five in Safar, and five in Rabi', how is the zakah to be paid?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If one owns twenty camels in Muharram, five in Safar, and five in Rabi', then he owes four sheep for the twenty when the lunar year is completed, and five one-year-old she-camels for the first five when their lunar year is completed.

The Shaykh : When. Yes. And for the first five.

The questioner : And for the first five when their lunar year is completed.

The Shaykh : Try.

The questioner : And for the first five when their lunar year is completed, five one-year-old she-camels, and for the third five, three.

The Shaykh : That is enough.

The questioner : The second and not the third? And for the second five, there are three views: one is that nothing is due on them, the second is that he owes one-sixth of a one-year-old she-camel, and the third is that he owes a sheep.

The Shaykh : Nothing seems to me to be stronger in this case, because it involves fractions of one-sixth of a one-year-old she-camel. Or. He owes a sheep because the five camels are independent, and a sheep is due on five camels.
