Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 378/258/L=1431)

(1) If any thing from above-mentioned articles is not bought with the intention of business then there is no zakah on their value.

(2) In case the house is on rent, zakah shall be wajib on its rent if other conditions of zakah are also fulfilled.
