A rented house has no on its value. Zakat is only due on the rental income if a full year (hawl) has passed on it, and it reaches the either by itself or when combined with other cash or trade goods. A plot of land has no zakat if it was not purchased for trade. A car has no zakat unless it was bought for resale and trade. However, if it was bought for personal use and ownership, there is no zakat on it. If it is rented out, zakat is due on the rental income if a full year has passed on it and it reaches the nisab either by itself or when combined with other cash or trade goods.
