The Shaykh : For that which is measured, the threshold of five wasqs is considered, and for that which is not measured, zakat is obligatory on it, whether in small or large quantities. However, this is a rigid adherence to the apparent meaning, because in his view, zakat is obligatory on everything that comes out of the earth, absolutely. Yes, everything that comes out of the earth. Yes. No, no, it is not from the Hanafis. He distinguishes and says: that which is measured is subject to the threshold of five wasqs, by the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) Sahih Muslim 979a and that which is not measured has zakat due on it, whether in small or large quantities. Yes?
