What is the method for calculating the zakat on the "Qassiba" crop, which is used as animal fodder, knowing that it is an irrigated crop and is harvested and stored, according to the Maliki school of thought?
The Maliki school of thought holds that is obligatory on twenty types of crops and fruits: dates and raisins, and eighteen types of grains (the seven legumes: chickpeas, fava beans, cowpeas, lentils, lupine, peas, and green peas, in addition to wheat, barley, millet, sorghum, rice, and spelt, and four oil-bearing seeds: olives, sesame, safflower, and radish seeds).
If the crop belongs to these eighteen types, Zakat is obligatory on it at a rate of one-twentieth if irrigated with effort, or one-tenth if irrigated without effort, provided that it reaches the , which is five awsuq. However, if it is not among these types, there is no Zakat due on it according to the Malikis.
