What is the ruling regarding the division of Zakat assessment for grains and fruits?

Chapter on Zakat on Crops and Fruits

Al-Mughni

Book of Zakat

Book 8 · Issue 2 · Bab 4

Open in Qurani

Zakat on grains and fruits must be assessed through exact calculation; one-tenth of the entirety possessed is due, as splitting the asset causes no harm.

This contrasts with livestock, where splitting the assessed amount causes harm, as previously discussed.
