Hadith.1634 - Abdullah ibn Sinan narrated from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) who said
A man asked him in my presence about the wealth of a slave: "Is Zakat obligatory on it?" The Imam (as) replied: "No, even if he possesses a million dirhams. Moreover, if he were in need, he would not be entitled to receive anything from Zakat."
1634 - وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ وَ أَنَا حَاضِرٌ عَنْ مَالِ اَلْمَمْلُوكِ أَ عَلَيْهِ زَكَاةٌ فَقَالَ «لاَ وَ لَوْ كَانَ لَهُ أَلْفُ أَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ وَ لَوِ اِحْتَاجَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مِنَ اَلزَّكَاةِ شَيْءٌ ».
