Zakah on a rented-out house
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: A person has a house in a town other than the one where he lives, and he rents out that house. He rents a place in his own town for less than the rent he receives from his owned house. Is there any zakah due on his owned house?
A: There is no zakah due on his house if he has not prepared it for sale. However, he must pay zakah on the rent if a lunar year passes over it before he spends it.
