The Ruling on the Zakah of the Offspring of Pledged Sheep
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Who is responsible for the offspring of pledged sheep and their zakah?
Answer:
It is the responsibility of their owner.
Q: And the zakah?
The Shaykh: It is the responsibility of their owner. The pledge is a document; this is a document for the pledge.
Q: And the offspring belong to the owner?
The Shaykh: Ownership belongs to the owner, and the offspring belong to the owner. However, the pledgee is given priority so that his debt is paid. If the debt cannot be paid from other sources, the sheep are sold and his debt is paid from them. This is the purpose of the pledge.
Q: In both cases, it belongs to the owner?
The Shaykh: Yes, it belongs to the owner, and he must pay its zakah if they are grazing or intended for trade. He pays the zakah on them.
