5-53 Muhammad ibn al-Hassan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Walid - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn al-Hassan al-Saffar quoted Al-Abbas ibn Ma’ruf, on the authority of Al-Hussein ibn Yazid al-Nawfaly, on the authority of Al-Yaqoobi, on the authority of Isa ibn Abdullah al-Alavi, on the authority of his father, on the authority of his grandfather, on the authority of Ja’far ibn Muhammad ibn Ali As-Sadiq (MGB)
“I swear by God - the One that has no substitute to be worshipped - who made charity illegal for us that He has established the one-fifth levy for us. Therefore, giving charity to us is forbidden, giving the alms to us is obligatory, and giving gifts to us is allowed.”
5-53 حدثنا محمد بن الحسن بن أحمد بن الوليد رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا محمد ابن الحسن الصفار، عن العباس بن معروف، عن الحسين بن يزيد النوفلي، عن اليعقوبي، عن عيسى بن عبد الله العلوي، عن أبيه، عن جده، عن جعفر بن محمد ابن علي عليهم السلام قال
إن الله الذي لا إله إلا هو لما حرم علينا الصدقة أنزل لنا الخمس، فالصدقة علينا حرام، والخمس لنا فريضة، والكرامة لنا حلال
