Is zakah paid for luxurious houses and cars? Is there a limit for their material value? Submitted by on Fri, 13/10/2017 - 15:26
The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
Zakah is not paid for the things that are regarded as basic necessities like a house and a car no matter how expensive they are.
The rate of zakah given by a person increases based on his financial situation. A person who lives in a waterside has a high income. He has to pay zakah from his income in a certain amount. The zakah paid by that person will be more than the zakah paid by a person who lives in a cheaper house and has a lower income.
