Zakat on Poultry

Question
Is zakat obligatory on poultry?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: Poultry is not subject to zakat by itself, as it is not among the grazing animals. Rather, it becomes subject to zakat when it is considered merchandise, and it is required to have the condition of growth in commercial goods, which is the intention of trade. And God knows best.
