Hadith 7
۞
Hadith.1603 - Zurara said:
I asked Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) "A man possesses one hundred and ninety-nine dirhams and nineteen dinars. Is Zakat due on them?"
Imam (as) replied: "No, there is no Zakat on the dirhams or the dinars until they reach the full amount."
Zurara said: "And this is the case for all things."
He continued:
I said to Abu Abdullah (as) "A man has four camels, thirty-nine sheep, and twenty-nine cows. Is Zakat due on them?"
Imam (as) replied: "He does not owe Zakat on any of them because none of them has reached the complete (obligatory) amount, and therefore Zakat is not due upon them."
1603 - وَ قَالَ زُرَارَةُ : قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَجُلٌ عِنْدَهُ مِائَةٌ وَ تِسْعَةٌ وَ تِسْعُونَ دِرْهَماً وَ تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ دِينَاراً أَ يُزَكِّيهَا فَقَالَ «لاَ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ زَكَاةٌ فِي اَلدَّرَاهِمِ وَ لاَ فِي اَلدَّنَانِيرِ حَتَّى تَتِمَّ» قَالَ زُرَارَةُ وَ كَذَلِكَ هُوَ فِي جَمِيعِ اَلْأَشْيَاءِ قَالَ وَ قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَجُلٌ كَانَتْ عِنْدَهُ أَرْبَعُ أَيْنُقٍ وَ تِسْعٌ وَ ثَلاَثُونَ شَاةً وَ تِسْعٌ وَ عِشْرُونَ بَقَرَةً أَ يُزَكِّيهِنَّ قَالَ «لاَ يُزَكِّي شَيْئاً مِنْهُنَّ لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ شَيْءٌ مِنْهُنَّ تَامّاً فَلَيْسَ تَجِبُ فِيهِ اَلزَّكَاةُ ».
