Al-Fitrah Charity Due to Fasting

21ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ مُعَتِّبٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ قَالَ اذْهَبْ فَأَعْطِ عَنْ عِيَالِنَا الْفِطْرَةَ وَأَعْطِ عَنِ الرَّقِيقِ وَاجْمَعْهُمْ وَلا تَدَعْ مِنْهُمْ أَحَداً فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ تَرَكْتَ مِنْهُمْ إِنْسَاناً تَخَوَّفْتُ عَلَيْهِ الْفَوْتَ قُلْتُ وَمَا الْفَوْتُ قَالَ الْمَوْتُ.
21. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar from Mu’attib who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, said to me, ‘Go and pay al-Fitrah for our dependents and pay for the slaves for all of them and do not leave anyone. If you left out a soul from them I will be afraid for the loss.’ I asked, ‘What kind of loss is it?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is death.’”
