Zakat is obligatory on a partner if their share reaches the nisab after deducting debt. This is done by valuing goods prepared for sale at market price at the time Zakat becomes due, including unsalable goods. Zakat is not obligatory on fixed assets. Debt is deducted from Zakatable wealth if the debtor does not have a surplus beyond their basic needs from funds upon which Zakat is not obligatory.
