The answer

If the aforementioned project is a contract, then is obligatory upon the capital owner for the principal and half of the profit after the completion of a full year (hawl), as is the of the Hanbalis. As for the Mudarib's share of the profit, Zakat is not obligatory upon him until after the distribution of the wealth and the termination of the contract, and he then begins a new year (hawl) with it.
