No zakaah is due on figs
Question

                Is zakaah due on figs?.
Praise be to Allah.
    No zakaah is due on vegetables, such as tomatoes and 
    cucumbers, or on fruits, such as pomegranates, figs, peaches and melons, 
    because they are not measured or stored; but if one deals in them then 
    zakaah should be paid after one year if their value reaches the nisaab, as 
    with all other trade goods. 

    It was narrated from Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri (may Allaah be 
    pleased with him) that the Prophet  (peace and blessings of Allaah be 
    upon him) said: “There is no zakaah due on less than five wasqs of dates or 
    grains.” Narrated by Muslim (979). 

    The relevant point here is “less than five wasqs”, which 
    indicates that measures are relevant. That which is not measurable is not 
    subject to zakaah.  

    Ibn Qudaamah said in al-Mughni (2/294): There is no 
    zakaah on other fruits, such as peaches, pears, apples, apricots, figs and 
    walnuts.  

    Al-Nawawi said in al-Majmoo’ (4/435): The texts of 
    al-Shaafa’i and his companions are agreed that there is no zakaah on figs, 
    apples, quince, pomegranates, peaches, walnuts, apricots, bananas, and so 
    on. 

    The scholars of the Standing Committee for Issuing Fatwas 
    said: Figs are not subject to zakaah, because they are fruits like 
    pomegranates and pears and so on, and they are not things that are measured 
    or stored. 

    Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah 
    (9/233). 

    Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) was 
    asked in Fataawa Noor ‘ala al-Darb: Is zakaah due on olives, olive 
    oil, pomegranates, and figs? Because we live in an area where these crops 
    are cultivated widely. 

    He replied: No zakaah is due on these crops; rather zakaah is 
    due on dates and grapes. As for olives, pomegranates, oranges, apples and 
    citrons, no zakaah is due on any of them. But if a person sells them and 
    gets money for them and it stays with him for a whole year, then he has to 
    pay zakaah, but this is zakaah on money, not fruit. End quote. 

    This was stated in a fatwa by Shaykh Ibn Baaz (may Allaah 
    have mercy on him) in Majmoo’ al-Fataawa (14/70). 

    And Allaah knows best.
