Zakah on sheep


A: The Zakah due on 200 sheep is 2 sheep; if they become 201 sheep, the Zakah is 3 sheep and if they increase to 399, only 3 sheep are required. If they become 400, the Zakah is only 4 sheep. Hence, the due Zakah is established; 1 sheep for every 100 sheep. As for Waqs, it refers to the number of sheep between two Nisabs of Zakah such as the number of sheep between 40 and 121, 121 and 201, and 201 and 400 sheep.
