Hadith.1585 - Ayyub ibn Rashid reported from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) who said
"The one who withholds Zakat will be encircled by a bald snake that will eat from his brain. This is the meaning of Allah’s (swt) statement: 'They will be encircled by what they withheld on the Day of Resurrection' (Surah Ali ‘Imran 3:180)."
1585 - وَ رَوَى أَيُّوبُ بْنُ رَاشِدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ
أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «مَانِعُ اَلزَّكَاةِ يُطَوَّقُ بِحَيَّةٍ قَرْعَاءَ تَأْكُلُ مِنْ دِمَاغِهِ وَ ذَلِكَ قَوْلُ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ: «۝ سَيُطَوَّقُونَ مٰا بَخِلُوا بِهِ يَوْمَ اَلْقِيٰامَةِ ۝» »
