Question

A person has become the owner of a land in Mirach Sutra. The value of the land is one lakh rupees. He does not cultivate that land and apart from that land, sadaqa-fitr is obligatory and he does not have any other additional resources. But that person has a debt of one lakh rupees, which he has taken for worldly needs. Now will sadaqa-fitr be obligatory on that person? 2664416945

Answer

In the case in question, sadaqa-fitr is not obligatory on that person. Because even though he has land worth one lakh rupees, he also has that amount of debt. If he repays the loan, he will not have any amount of wealth left for Fitra. So the person does not have to pay Fitra. 8547846195
