Chapter on Categories Upon Whom Zakat is Obligatory
وَ سَأَلَهُ يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ شُعَيْبٍ: عَنِ اَلْعُشُورِ اَلَّتِي تُؤْخَذُ مِنَ اَلرَّجُلِ يُحْتَسَبُ بِهَا مِنْ زَكَاتِهِ قَالَ «نَعَمْ إِنْ شَاءَ ».
Ya'qub ibn Shu'ayb asked him (Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام) about the tithes collected from a man: "Can they be counted as part of his Zakat?" Imam عليه السلام replied: "Yes, if he wishes."
