Primary text

When the number of camels reaches thirty-six and does not exceed forty-five, the due animal is a *Bint Labun* (female camel that has completed its second year). If the number reaches forty-six and does not exceed sixty, the due animal is a *Haqqah* (female camel that has completed its third year) which is eligible to be bred by the male (*turuqat al-fahl*). These stipulations concerning the required ages for Zakat are established by consensus, and the relevant prophetic report confirms these categories.
