Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A man says that he distributes most of the produce of his farm to his family and relatives, and he disposes of some of it himself. Is zakah obligatory on it?
The Shaykh : Yes, zakah is obligatory if it reaches the nisab.
One of the men from the Eastern Province came to me with a handwritten explanation of the Book of the Weak (al-Riqaq) from al-Bukhari. The handwriting is good, and he asked me to review it. Then he came back to me and said, "There is no copy other than this one; I want to photocopy it." This was the day before yesterday. He took it from me and did not return it to me. Does any of you know anything about his whereabouts? Yes, it is you. What Allah willed. Where did you go?
All right, in the name of Allah, yes.
The questioner : Shaykh, the explanation of the chapter is not complete.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : The explanation of the chapter, the chapter on the sign of the hypocrite.
The Shaykh : Yes, I do.
The questioner : You have not explained it, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Yes, zakah is obligatory if it reaches the nisab.
