The Imam (as) replied: "The same is taken from them as is taken from mines of gold and silver."

1646 - وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَقُولُ: «لَيْسَ اَلْخُمُسُ إِلاَّ فِي اَلْغَنَائِمِ خَاصَّةً ».

Hadith.1649 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "Indeed, Allah (swt), there is no god but Him, when He prohibited charity (Sadaqah) for us, He ordained Khums for us. Thus, charity is forbidden to us, Khums is an obligation for us, and gifts of honor are permissible for us."

1650 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَصْلَحَكَ اَللَّهُ مَا أَيْسَرُ مَا يَدْخُلُ بِهِ اَلْعَبْدُ اَلنَّارَ قَالَ «مَنْ أَكَلَ مِنْ مَالِ اَلْيَتِيمِ دِرْهَماً وَ نَحْنُ اَلْيَتِيمُ ».

Hadith.1651 - Zakariya ibn Malik al-Ju'fi asked Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) about the verse of Allah (swt), the Almighty: "And know that whatever you gain, a fifth of it is for Allah (swt), the Messenger, the near relatives, the orphans, the needy, and the traveler" (Surah Al-Anfal 8:41). The Imam (as) replied: "As for the share of Allah (swt), it is for the Messenger to spend in the way of Allah (swt). The share of the Messenger, peace and blessings be upon him and his family, is for his relatives. The share of 'those near' is for his close family. The orphans are the orphans of his household, so these four shares are allocated to them. As for the needy and the travelers, you know that we do not eat from charity, nor is it permissible for us. Thus, it is for the needy and the travelers outside our family."

1652 - وَ فِي تَوْقِيعَاتِ اَلرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ اَلْهَمَذَانِيِّ : «إِنَّ اَلْخُمُسَ بَعْدَ اَلْمَئُونَةِ».

Hadith.1653 - Abu Ubaydah al-Haddha’ narrated from Abu Ja’far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) who said: "Any non-Muslim under the protection of Islam (dhimmi) who buys land from a Muslim is obligated to pay Khums on it."

1654 - وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «إِنَّ أَشَدَّ مَا فِيهِ اَلنَّاسُ يَوْمَ اَلْقِيَامَةِ أَنْ يَقُومَ صَاحِبُ اَلْخُمُسِ فَيَقُولَ يَا رَبِّ خُمُسِي وَ قَدْ طَيَّبْنَا ذَلِكَ لِشِيعَتِنَا لِتَطِيبَ وِلاَدَتُهُمْ أَوْ لِتَزْكُوَ وِلاَدَتُهُمْ ».

Hadith.1654 - Muhammad ibn Muslim narrated from one of them (Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir or Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as)) who said: "The most severe situation for people on the Day of Resurrection will be when the rightful owner of Khums stands and says, 'O Lord (azj), where is my Khums?' We have made it permissible for our Shia so that their offspring may be purified or so that their lineage may be pure."

1655 - وَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى أَمِيرِ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَقَالَ: يَا أَمِيرَ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَصَبْتُ مَالاً أَغْمَضْتُ فِيهِ أَ فَلِي تَوْبَةٌ قَالَ «اِئْتِنِي بِخُمُسِهِ» فَأَتَاهُ بِخُمُسِهِ فَقَالَ «هُوَ لَكَ إِنَّ اَلرَّجُلَ إِذَا تَابَ تَابَ مَالُهُ مَعَهُ.

Hadith.1655 - A man came to Amir al-Mu'minin (Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as)) and said: "O Amir al-Mu'minin, I have acquired wealth through questionable means. Is there repentance for me?" The Imam (as) replied: "Bring me its Khums." The man brought him the Khums, and the Imam (as) said: "It is yours. When a person repents, his wealth repents with him."

1656 - وَ سُئِلَ أَبُو اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَأْخُذُ مِنْهُ هَؤُلاَءِ زَكَاةَ مَالِهِ أَوْ خُمُسَ غَنِيمَتِهِ أَوْ خُمُسَ مَا يَخْرُجُ لَهُ مِنَ اَلْمَعَادِنِ أَ يُحْسَبُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فِي زَكَاتِهِ وَ خُمُسِهِ فَقَالَ «نَعَمْ».

The Imam (as) replied: "Yes."

1657 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي عَلِيِّ بْنِ رَاشِدٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ اَلثَّالِثِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ إِنَّا نُؤْتَى بِالشَّيْءِ فَيُقَالُ هَذَا كَانَ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عِنْدَنَا فَكَيْفَ نَصْنَعُ فَقَالَ «مَا كَانَ لِأَبِي عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ بِسَبَبِ اَلْإِمَامَةِ فَهُوَ لِي وَ مَا كَانَ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ فَهُوَ مِيرَاثٌ عَلَى كِتَابِ اَللَّهِ وَ سُنَّةِ نَبِيِّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ ».

What should we do with it?" The Imam (as) replied: "Whatever belonged to my father (as) due to his position as the Imam is now mine. As for anything else, it is inheritance distributed according to the Book of Allah (swt) and the Sunnah of His Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him and his family."

1658 - وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «إِنِّي لآَخُذُ مِنْ أَحَدِكُمُ اَلدِّرْهَمَ وَ إِنِّي لَمِنْ أَكْثَرِ أَهْلِ اَلْمَدِينَةِ مَالاً مَا أُرِيدُ بِذَلِكَ إِلاَّ أَنْ تُطَهَّرُوا ».

Hadith.1658 - Abdullah ibn Bukayr narrated from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) who said: "I take a dirham from one of you, while I am among the wealthiest people in Medina. I do this only so that you may be purified."

1659 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ قَالَ: كُنْتُ عِنْدَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ مِنَ اَلْقَمَّاطِينَ فَقَالَ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ تَقَعُ فِي أَيْدِينَا اَلْأَرْبَاحُ وَ اَلْأَمْوَالُ وَ تِجَارَاتٌ نَعْرِفُ أَنَّ حَقَّكَ فِيهَا ثَابِتٌ وَ إِنَّا عَنْ ذَلِكَ مُقَصِّرُونَ فَقَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «مَا أَنْصَفْنَاكُمْ إِنْ كَلَّفْنَاكُمْ ذَلِكَ اَلْيَوْمَ ».
