Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 1189/1194/M=10/1434) If you are buying the plot with the intention that you shall sell it and meet the expenses of marriage with it and will keep the plot and the gold biscuit in your possession then you will have to pay the zakah of both the plots and 20 tolas of gold.
