The aforementioned sheep are subject to Zakat if a year has passed over them and they constitute a nisab (taxable amount), which is forty sheep. In this case, one sheep is to be given as Zakat until the number reaches one hundred and twenty-one, at which point two sheep become due. This applies even if the share of each partner, individually, does not reach the nisab.
