Chapter on Khums

Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 2|Book 1|Chapter 7
وَ سُئِلَ أَبُو اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَأْخُذُ مِنْهُ هَؤُلاَءِ زَكَاةَ مَالِهِ أَوْ خُمُسَ غَنِيمَتِهِ أَوْ خُمُسَ مَا يَخْرُجُ لَهُ مِنَ اَلْمَعَادِنِ أَ يُحْسَبُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فِي زَكَاتِهِ وَ خُمُسِهِ فَقَالَ «نَعَمْ».
Abu al-Hasan (Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim عليه السلام) was asked about a man from whom others take the Zakat of his wealth, the Khums of his spoils, or the Khums of what he extracts from the mines: "Is that counted for him as fulfilling his Zakat and Khums obligations?" The Imam عليه السلام replied: "Yes."
