1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Hariz from Isma‘il ibn ‘Abdul Khaliq al-Ju’fiy who has said the following
“Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that one of the elements that preserve the Muslims and Islam is when wealth goes to those who understand that there are payable dues on wealth and who make Benevolent Assistance part of their normal practice. One of the destructive elements to Islam and the Muslims is when wealth goes to those who do not acknowledge the existence of any rights due on wealth and who do not make Benevolent Assistance part of their normal practice.”
1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْخَالِقِ الْجُعْفِيِّ قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) إِنَّ مِنْ بَقَاءِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَبَقَاءِ الإِسْلامِ أَنْ تَصِيرَ الأَمْوَالُ عِنْدَ مَنْ يَعْرِفُ فِيهَا الْحَقَّ وَيَصْنَعُ فِيهَا الْمَعْرُوفَ فَإِنَّ مِنْ فَنَاءِ الإِسْلامِ وَفَنَاءِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أَنْ تَصِيرَ الأَمْوَالُ فِي أَيْدِي مَنْ لا يَعْرِفُ فِيهَا الْحَقَّ وَلا يَصْنَعُ فِيهَا الْمَعْرُوفَ.
