Among the Concise Words of the Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon Him)

وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "إِنَّ لِلَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى بِقَاعاً تُسَمَّى اَلْمُنْتَقِمَةَ فَإِذَا أَعْطَى اَللَّهُ عَبْداً مَالاً لَمْ يُخْرِجْ حَقَّ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مِنْهُ سَلَّطَ اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ بُقْعَةً مِنْ تِلْكَ اَلْبِقَاعِ فَأَتْلَفَ ذَلِكَ اَلْمَالَ فِيهَا ثُمَّ مَاتَ وَ تَرَكَهَا".
Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "Indeed, Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Blessed and Exalted, has lands called Al-Muntaqimah (The Avenger). When Allah سبحانه وتعالى grants a servant wealth and he does not give Allah's سبحانه وتعالى rightful due from it, Allah سبحانه وتعالى assigns to him a portion of those lands where his wealth is wasted, and then he dies, leaving it behind."
