Q 2: How can we calculate the Zakah (obligatory charity) on trucks and taxis? Is it paid on the value or the income of these vehicles?


A: The Zakah must be paid on the money obtained from renting these vehicles, not on their value if one year passes on the money that was gained and is in the owner's possession [has not been spent].May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and Companions!
