How much zakat is due on a $50,000 CD (certificate of deposit) in an Isalmic Shariah Bank in Bangladesh after a year passes over it?  May Allah subhanahuwatalla reward you and all those sincerely working to seek HIS pleasure.  Ameen

Answer

Respected Brother in Islam.

What does “CD” mean in your country?

Here in South Africa “CDs and FDs” are essentially the same.

As every country has its own specific “Banking Terminologies”, please clarify the above in order for us to issue a Shari` Ruling.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
