Hadith Abu Hurairah reported Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him) as saying: If any owner of gold or silver does not pay what is due on him, when the Day of Resurrection would come, plates of fire would be beaten out for him; these would then be heated in the fire of Hell and his sides, his forehead and his back would be cauterized with them. Whenever these cool down, (the process is) repeated during a day the extent of which would be fifty thousand years, until judgment is pronounced among servants, and he sees whether his path is to take him to Paradise or to Hell. (Sahih Muslim) |

Zakah is mentioned vis-à-vis with Salaah (prayer) in 30 verses of the Qur'an. It was first revealed in Surah Al Muzzamil: 20;
".... and establish regular prayers and give regular charity; and loan to Allah a beautiful loan. And whatever good ye send forth for your souls, ye shall find it in Allah's presence, Yea, better and greater in reward and seek ye the grace of Allah: for Allah is oft-forgiving, Most Merciful."
In another verse, Allah declares that those who pay Zakah, are included within the Muslim society (Jamiatul Islamiah) - At Taubah: 11
"But (even so), if they repent, establish regular prayers, and practice regular charity, they are your brethren in Faith: (thus) do We explain the Signs in detail, for those who understand." |
