10. Zakāh (Prescribed Charity)
١٠۔ كِتَابُ الزَّكَاةِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to a group of Bedouins and they said, "We are visited by believers who then betray us." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Accept them and they will not harm you." They accepted them three times. Each time, they said, "Accept them." Jarir said, "No one came to me as a believer and then left while they were still pleased with him except for him (the Messenger of Allah).
أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَعْرَابٌ فَقَالُوا يَأْتِينَا مُصَدِّقُونَ فَيَعْتَدُونَ عَلَيْنَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَرْضُوهُمْ فَأَعَادُوا عَلَيْهِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتِ كُلُّ ذَلِكَ يَقُولُ أَرْضُوهُمْ قَالَ جَرِيرٌ ؓ فَمَا أَتَانِي مُصَدِّقٌ بَعْدُ إِلَّا ذَهَبَ وَهُوَ رَاضٍ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "A group of people you dislike will come to you. When they come to you, welcome them and create a space between them and what they seek. If they are just, they are upon themselves (their reward), and if they are oppressive, the burden is on them. And please them, for their complete zakat is their satisfaction. And let them pray for you."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ سَيَأْتِيكُمْ رَكْبٌ مُبْغَضُونَ فَإِذَا أَتَوْكُمْ فَرَحِّبُوا بِهِمْ وَخَلُّوا بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ مَا يَبْتَغُونَ فَإِنْ عَدَلُوا فَلِأَنْفُسِهِمْ وَإِنْ ظَلَمُوا فَعَلَيْهَا وَأَرْضُوهُمْ فَإِنَّ تَمَامَ زَكَاتِهِمْ رِضَاهُمْ وَلْيَدْعُوا لَكُمْ
[Machine] Some of it I give to the sultan, and some of it I give in charity. He said, "What is it for? Why do you do that?" He said, "They buy silver coins with it, marry women with it, and buy land with it." He said, "Give it to them, for the Prophet ﷺ commanded us to give it to them, and they are responsible for its distribution."
مِنْهَا مَا أَدْفَعُهَا إِلَى السُّلْطَانِ وَمِنْهَا مَا أَتَصَدَّقُ بِهَا فَقَالَ مَا لَكَ وَمَا لِذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ إِنَّهُمْ يَشْتَرُونَ بِهَا الْبِزُوزَ وَيَتَزَوَّجُونَ بِهَا النِّسَاءَ وَيَشْتَرُونَ بِهَا الْأَرَضِينَ قَالَ فَادْفَعْهَا إِلَيْهِمْ فَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَمَرَنَا أَنْ نَدْفَعَهَا إِلَيْهِمْ وَعَلَيْهِمْ حِسَابُهُمْ
[Machine] Pay your charity from your wealth to those whom Allah has made responsible for your affairs. Whoever is righteous, it is only for the benefit of oneself. And whoever does evil, it is against themselves.
ادْفَعُوا صَدَقَاتِ أَمْوَالِكُمْ إِلَى مَنْ وَلَّاهُ اللهُ أَمْرَكُمْ فَمَنْ بَرَّ فَلِنَفْسِهِ وَمَنْ أَثِمَ فَعَلَيْهَا
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When the beggar comes to you, give him your charity. But if he transgresses against you, turn away from him and do not curse him. Instead, say, 'O Allah, I seek reward with You for what he has taken from me.'"
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا أَتَاكُمُ الْمُصَدِّقُ فَأَعْطِهِ صَدَقَتَكَ فَإِنِ اعْتَدَى عَلَيْكَ فَوَلِّهِ ظَهْرَهُ وَلَا تَلْعَنْهُ وَقُلْ اللهُمَّ إِنِّي احْتَسَبْتُ عِنْدَكَ مَا أَخَذَ مِنِّي
[Machine] Pay it to them, and if they drink alcohol with it, meaning the princes.
ادْفَعُوهَا إِلَيْهِمْ وَإِنْ شَرِبُوا بِهَا الْخَمْرَ يَعْنِي الْأُمَرَاءَ
[Machine] He used to pay them, meaning the Sultan, in the turmoil, they would bite their animals with it.
كَانَ يَدْفَعُهَا إِلَيْهِمْ يَعْنِي السُّلْطَانَ فِي الْفِتْنَةِ يَقْضَمُونَ بِهَا دَوَابَّهُمْ
[Machine] His charity is due, and I find a place for it, and these people do in it what you have seen. So he said, give it to them. So I asked Abu Sa'id the same question, and he said, give it to them. And I asked Ibn 'Umar the same question, and he said, give it to them. And we have also been narrated from Abu Huraira, Jabir ibn 'Abdullah, and Abdullah ibn Abbas on this matter.
زَكَاتَهُ وَأَنَا أَجِدُ لَهَا مَوْضِعًا وَهَؤُلَاءِ يَصْنَعُونَ فِيهَا مَا قَدْ رَأَيْتَ فَقَالَ أَدِّهَا إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ وَسَأَلْتُ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ أَدِّهَا إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ وَسَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ أَدِّهَا إِلَيْهِمْ وَرُوِّينَا فِي هَذَا أَيْضًا عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَجَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ
