    What is the basis of Iztehad in zakat ? Because there were other businesses at that time and we haven’t found any reference regarding zakat in other businesses. Then how did Javed sahab perform Iztehad ? And zakat was only for production in Agriculture and animal, not other businesses.

    Businesses engaged in production—such as industries, rental income from buildings and vehicles, or service fees—fall under the category of production zakat.

    In contrast, commercial trade is subject to zakat on savings, which is 2.5% annually on merchandise. Trade, as a form of economic activity, has always existed.

    Zakat on animals can be applied to horses and dogs, and cats which are bred and sold for income.
