Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is extracted from the sea, O Shaykh, is there zakah in it?
Answer:
There is no zakah in it, according to the correct view. However, if a lunar year has passed and its owner has intended it for sale, it becomes merchandise for trade. If it is gold or silver, zakah becomes obligatory on it if a lunar year has passed. As for if it is other than that, if what is extracted from the sea is other than that, and its owner has prepared it for sale, it becomes merchandise for trade.
The presenter: May Allah reward you.
