Chapter on One Entitled to Zakat Due to Poverty and Destitution from Among the Categories
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ عِدَّةٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ اَلْأَشْعَرِيِّ عَنِ اَلرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلزَّكَاةِ هَلْ تُوضَعُ فِيمَنْ لاَ يَعْرِفُ قَالَ» لاَ وَ لاَ زَكَاةُ اَلْفِطْرَةِ«.
Muhammad ibn Yaqub, from several of our companions, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from Ismail ibn Sad al-Ashari, from Imam al-Ridha عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said:
I (narrator) asked Imam عليه السلام about ‘zakat, Is it to be placed among one who does not recognize?’ – meaning wilayah. Imam عليه السلام said: “No, nor the zakat of al-fitrah.”
