In Russia, we graze the cows for half the year and feed them for the other half. Is there zakah (the obligatory alms) on them?

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: In Russia, we have cows that graze for approximately half the year, and we feed them for the other half. Is there zakah on them?

Answer:
No. If they do not graze for the entire lunar year or most of the lunar year, there is no zakah on them. There is no zakah on them if they graze for half the year or less.
