Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Yes, the stronger position, yes, the stronger position is that zakah becomes obligatory on it in the year of collection, because the least we can say about it is that it resembles the fruits one has obtained, so one pays zakah on it in the year of collection, and then one pays zakah on it every time a lunar year passes over it.
