11. Book of Zakāh
١١۔ كِتَابُ الزَّكَاةِ
ذِكْرُ إِيجَابِ الْجَنَّةِ لِمَنْ آتَى الزَّكَاةَ مَعَ إِقَامَةِ الصَّلَاةِ وَصِلَتِهِ الرَّحِمَ
[Machine] A man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "Tell me about a deed that will admit me to Paradise." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Worship Allah alone and do not associate anything with Him, establish the prayer, give the Zakah, and maintain family ties." He specifically mentioned the she-camel (as a means of maintaining family ties).
أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ حَدِّثْنِي بِعَمَلٍ يُدْخِلُنِي الْجَنَّةَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «اعْبُدِ اللَّهَ لَا تُشْرِكْ بِهِ شَيْئًا وَتُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ وَتُؤْتِي الزَّكَاةَ وَتَصِلُ الرَّحِمَ ذَرْهَا» يَعْنِي النَّاقَةَ
ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ شُعْبَةَ سَمِعَ هَذَا الْخَبَرِ مِنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ، وَأَبِيهِ جَمِيعًا
A man said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Inform me of a deed which will make me enter Paradise." The people said, "What is the matter with him? What is the matter with him?" Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "He has something to ask (what he needs greatly)." The Prophet ﷺ said (to him), (In order to enter Paradise) you should worship Allah and join none in worship with Him: You should offer prayers perfectly, give obligatory charity (Zakat), and keep good relations with your Kith and kin." He then said, "Leave it!" (The sub-narrator said, "It seems that the Prophet ﷺ was riding his she camel." (Using translation from Bukhārī 5983)
يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ أَخْبِرْنِي بِعَمَلٍ يُدْخِلُنِي الْجَنَّةَ فَقَالَ الْقَوْمُ مَالَهُ مَالَهُ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَرَبٌ مَالَهُ» قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ «تَعْبُدُ اللَّهَ لَا تُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئًا وَتُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ وَتُؤْتِي الزَّكَاةَ وَتَصِلُ الرَّحِمَ ذَرْهَا» قَالَ كَأَنَّهُ كَانَ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ
ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ إِنَّمَا تَجِبُ لِمَنْ آتَى الزَّكَاةَ مَعَ سَائِرِ الْفَرَائِضِ، وَكَانَ مُجْتَنِبًا لِلْكَبَائِرِ
[Machine] The messenger of Allahﷺ said: "There is no worshipper who worships Allah, without associating anything with Him, and establishes prayer, gives zakat, fasts in Ramadan, and avoids major sins, except that he will enter Paradise."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يَعْبُدُ اللَّهَ لَا يُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئًا وَيُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ وَيُؤْتِي الزَّكَاةَ وَيَصُومُ رَمَضَانَ وَيَجْتَنِبُ الْكَبَائِرَ إِلَّا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ»
ذِكْرُ نَفْيِ النَّقْصِ عَنِ الْمَالِ بِالصَّدَقَةِ مَعَ إِثْبَاتِ نَمَائِهِ بِهَا
Charity does not decrease wealth, no one forgives another except that Allah increases his honor, and no one humbles himself for the sake of Allah except that Allah raises his status. (Using translation from Muslim 2588)
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «مَا نَقَصَتْ صَدَقَةٌ مِنْ مَالٍ وَلَا زَادَ اللَّهُ عَبْدًا بِعَفْوٍ إِلَّا عِزًّا وَلَا تَوَاضَعَ أَحَدٌ لِلَّهِ إِلَّا رَفَعَهُ اللَّهُ»
ذِكْرُ اسْتِيفَاءِ الْمَرْءِ الثَّوَابَ الْجَزِيلَ فِي الْعُقْبَى بِإِعْطَائِهِ صَدَقَةَ مَاشِيَتِهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا
Abu Sa’id Al Khudri said “A Bedouin asked the Prophet ﷺ about emigration. He replied “Woe to you! The matter of emigration is severe. Have you a Camel? He said, Yes. He asked “Do you pay its zakat? He said, Yes. He said, Then work (anywhere) beyond the seas. Allaah will not reduce anything from (the reward of) your work. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2477)
أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْهِجْرَةِ فَقَالَ «وَيْحَكَ إِنَّ شَأْنَ الْهِجْرَةِ شَدِيدٌ فَهَلْ لَكَ مِنْ إِبِلٍ»؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَهَلْ تُؤَدِّي صَدَقَتَهَا» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَاعْمَلْ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْبِحَارِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَنْ يَتِرَكَ مِنْ عَمَلِكَ شَيْئًا»
