1594 - وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : «صَلاَةٌ مَكْتُوبَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ عِشْرِينَ حَجَّةً وَ حَجَّةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ بَيْتٍ مَمْلُوءٍ ذَهَباً يُتَصَدَّقُ بِهِ فِي بِرٍّ حَتَّى يَنْفَدَ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «وَ لاَ أَفْلَحَ مَنْ ضَيَّعَ عِشْرِينَ بَيْتاً مِنْ ذَهَبٍ بِخَمْسَةٍ وَ عِشْرِينَ دِرْهَماً» فَقِيلَ لَهُ وَ مَا مَعْنَى خَمْسَةٍ وَ عِشْرِينَ دِرْهَماً قَالَ «مَنْ مَنَعَ اَلزَّكَاةَ وُقِفَتْ صَلاَتُهُ حَتَّى يُزَكِّيَ.
Hadith.1594 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq said:
"An obligatory prayer is better than twenty Hajj pilgrimages, and one Hajj pilgrimage is better than a house filled with gold that is given in charity for good deeds until it is exhausted."
He then added: "And no one prospers who wastes twenty houses of gold over twenty-five dirhams."
He was asked: "What is the meaning of twenty-five dirhams?"
Imam
replied: "Whoever withholds Zakat, their prayer is suspended until they pay their Zakat."
