Allah, Maɗaukaki, yana cewa, {Kada waɗanda suke yin rowa da abin da Allah ya ba su daga falalarSa, su zaci cewa shi alheri ne a gare su. A'a, sharri ne a gare su. Za a ɗaura abin da suka yi rowa da shi a wuyansu a Ranar Alƙiyama. Kuma na Allah ne gadon sammai da ƙasa. Kuma Allah Masani ne ga abin da kuke aikatawa.} (Ali 'Imran: 180)

Allah, the Most High, says, {And let not those who covetously withhold of the gifts which Allah hath given them of His Grace, think that it is good for them: Nay, it will be the worse for them: Soon it will be tied to their necks like a twisted caller, on the Day of Judgment. To Allah belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth. And Allah is Well-Acquainted with all that ye do.} (AI-Imran: 180)

Alkur'ani kuma ya bayyana cewa: {Kuma tsananin azaba ya tabbata ga waɗanda ba sa bayar da zakka, kuma suke musanta Lahira. Amma waɗanda suka yi imani kuma suka aikata ayyukan kirki, to suna da lada wadda ba za ta ƙare ba.} (Fussilat: 6-7)

The Qur'an also states, {And woe to those who pay not Zakat and who even deny the Hereafter. For those who believe and work deeds of righteousness is a reward that will never fail.} (Fussilat: 6-7)

Allah, Maɗaukakin, yana cewa: {Kuma akwai waɗanda suke tara zinariya da azurfa, ba sa ciyar da su a hanyar Allah: to, ka yi musu albishir da azaba mai raɗaɗi. A Ranar da za a narkar da su a cikin Wutar Jahannama, sa'an nan a yi musu alama da su a goshinsu, da gefen jikinsu, da bayansu. Wannan ne abin da kuka tara wa kanku. To, ku ɗanɗana abin da kuka tara.} (At-Tawbah: 34-35)

Allah, the Almighty, says, {And there are those who hoard gold and silver and spend it not in the way of Allah: announce unto them a most grievous chastisement. On the Day when it will be heated in the Fire of Hell, and with it will be branded their foreheads, their flanks, and their backs. This is the (treasure) which ye hoarded for yourselves: taste ye, then, the (treasures) ye hoarded.} (At- Tawbah: 34-35)

Annabi ﷺ ya ce, "Duk wanda yake da zinariya da azurfa, amma bai biya zakkar da ta wajaba a kansu ba, (ya sani cewa) za a narkar da zinariyarsa da azurfarsa a Ranar Alƙiyama, a mai da su faranti, sa'an nan a rika zafafa su a wutar Jahannama, sa'an nan a yi amfani da su wajen kona gefensa, da goshinsa, da bayansa. Idan waɗannan faranti suka huce, sai a sake zafafa su a cikin tanderun Jahannama, kuma ana ci gaba da kona shi a cikin yini, tsawon lokacinsa kuwa daidai yake da shekaru dubu hamsin, kuma a wannan lokacin za a riga an yanke hukunci ga dukkan mutane, sa'an nan a nuna musu hanyarsu, ko dai zuwa Jahannama ko zuwa Aljannah."1

The Prophet (pbuh) said, "A wealthy person who has got gold and silver, but does not pay the Zakat due on the same, (should know that) his gold and silver will be melted on the Day of Judgment and Converted into slabs which will then be heated in the fire of Hell, and then has sides, his forehead, and his back will be branded therewith. When these slabs will get cold, they will be heated up once more in the furnace of the Hell, the branding will be continued throughout the day, the duration of which will be equal to fifty thousand years, and the cases of all the people will have been decided by this time and they will be shown their way either to the Hell or to Paradise.”1

An rawaito cewa Manzon Allah ﷺ ya ce: "Akwai mutane uku da za su shiga Wuta: Shugaba azzalumi, da mai dukiya wanda ba ya biyan haƙƙin Allah daga dukiyarsa, da talaka mai girman kai."2

It was related that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, "There are three people who will enter the Fire: An oppressive leader, a wealthy person who does not pay Allah's right from his wealth and a proud poor.”2

Ibn 'Abbas, (Allah ya yarda da shi), ya ce: "Duk wanda yake da dukiyar da zai iya yin aikin Hajji ko ya biya Zakka, amma bai yi ba, zai roƙi Allah ya mayar da shi (duniya) idan mutuwa ta zo masa." Wani mutum ya ce: "Ibn 'Abbas, ka ji tsoron Allah! Babu wanda yake roƙon a mayar da shi sai kafirai." Sai Ibn 'Abbas ya karanta maganar Allah: {Kuma ku ciyar daga abin da Muka azurta ku da shi, kafin mutuwa ta zo wa ɗayanku, sai ya ce: "Ya Ubangijina! Don me ba ka jinkirta min ba zuwa lokaci kaɗan, sai in yi sadaka, in kuma zama daga masu aikin alheri."} (Al-Munafiqun: 10)

Ibn ' Abbas, (may Allah be pleased with him), said, "Whoever has enough property to make pilgrimage or to pay Zakat but he does not will ask Allah to return (to this world) when dying." Someone said, "Ibn 'Abbas, fear Allah, No one asks for return but the unbelievers." Then Ibn ' Abbas read Allah's saying, {And spend something (in charity) out of the substance which We have bestowed on you, before death should come to any of you and he should say, ' O my Lord! Why didst thou not give me respite for a little while I should then have given (largely) in charity, and I should have been one of the doers of good.} (Al-Munafiqun: 10)

Babu zakka a kan kayan ado na zinariya ko azurfa da aka shirya don amfani da aka halatta, amma idan an shirya su domin haya ko kuma a matsayin kadarar dindindin, to zakka wajibi ce a kansu. Haka kuma zakka wajibi ce a kan kayan kasuwanci.

There is no Zakat on (gold or silver) jewelry that is for permissible use, but if it is prepared for uses of renting or as an article which is pennanent acquisition then Zakat is obligatory. Zakat is also obligatory for trade.

Abu Hurairah, Allah ya yarda da shi, ya ruwaito cewa Annabi ﷺ ya ce: "Duk wanda Allah ya azurta da dukiya, amma bai biya zakkar dukiyarsa ba, za a mai da shi kamar maciji mai guba, mai kai kawai ba gashi, mai dige-dige baƙi guda biyu a kan idanunsa. Macijin zai kewaye wuyansa, ya cije kumatunsa, sannan ya ce: 'Ni ne dukiyarka.'" Sannan ya karanta wannan ayar: {Kuma kada waɗanda suke yin rowa da abin da Allah ya ba su su yi zaton cewa hakan alheri ne a gare su. A'a, sharri ne a gare su. Za a ɗaura musu abin da suka yi rowarsa da shi a wuyansu a Ranar Tashin Alƙiyama. Kuma Allah ne gadon sammai da ƙasa, kuma Allah Masani ne ga abin da kuke aikatawa} (Ali-Imran: 180).1

Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, related that the Prophet (pbuh) said, "Whoever is made wealthy by Allah and does not pay the Zakat of his wealth will be made like a baldheaded poisonous male snake with two black spots over its eyes. The snake will encircle his neck and bite his cheeks and say, "I am your treasure " Then he recited the following verse, {And definitely let not the ones who are miserly with what Allah has given them,' no indeed, it is an evil (thing) for them. They shall have annulated (about their necks) whatever they were miserly with, on the Day of Resurrection and to Allah is the inheritance of the heavens and the earth,' and Allah is Ever Cognizant of whatsoever you do} (AI-Imran: 180)1

Cikin tafsirinsa na faɗin Allah {A Ranar da za a yi zafi da shi a cikin wutar Jahannama, sa'an nan a yi wa goshinsu da gefen jikinsu da bayansu alama da shi, "Wannan ne abin da kuka tattara wa kanku. Saboda haka ku ɗanɗana abin da kuka tattara}. (At-Tawba: 35)

In his commentary on Allah's saying {On the Day when it will be heated in the fire of Hell, and with it will be branded their foreheads, their flanks, and their backs, -This is the (treasures) which ye hoarded for yourselves: taste ye, then the (treasures) ye hoarded} (Al- Tawbah: 35)

Ibn Mas'ud ya ce, "Dirhami da Dinari ba za a sanya su a fatarsa tare ba, sai dai daban-daban, kuma za su rufe shi gaba ɗaya." An ruwaito cewa Manzon Allah ﷺ ya ce, "Ayyuka biyar suna haifar da azabu biyar." Suka ce, "Menene ma'anarsa?" Ya ce, "Duk sa'ad da wasu mutane suka karya alkawari, Allah zai sa maƙiyinsu ya kai musu hari. Idan suka yi mulki da wata doka ba ta Allah ba, za a addabe su da talauci. Idan fasikanci (zina) ya yawaita a cikinsu, mutuwa za ta ƙaru. Idan sun yi aunawa ko awo da ƙarya, za a hana su amfanin noma kuma za su sha wahalar shekarun fari. Idan ba su biya zakka ba, ruwan sama ba zai sauka ba."

Ibn Mas'ud said, “Dirham and Dinar will not be put in his skin collectively but separately and will cover him totally.” It was related that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, "Five (actions) entail five (punishments)" They asked, "What does it mean?" He said, "Whenever some people break a covenant, Allah will entice their enemy to attack them. If they rule in other than Allah's law, they will be plagued with poverty. If indecency (adultery) prevails them, there will be more deaths. If they give short scales or weights they will be deprived of tillage and will suffer the barren years, if they do not pay Zakat, there will be no rain.” 2

Muhammad Ibn Yusuf Al-Feriabi ya ce: Wata rana na fita tare da wani rukuni na abokaina don ziyartar Abu Sann'an, Allah ya yi masa rahama. Da muka shiga gidansa muka zauna na wani lokaci, sai ya ce: "Mu ziyarci wata makwabciyarmu wadda ɗan'uwanta ya rasu kwanan nan don yi mata ta'aziyya."

Muhammad Ibn Yusuf Al-Feriabi said, II Once I went out accompanied with a group of my friends to visit Abu Sann'an, may Allah have mercy on him. When we entered his house and sat down for a while, he said, “Let us visit a neighbor whose brother has recently died to console him.” Then, we all went to the man but we found him wailing and impatient for the death of his brother. Accordingly, we tried to console him but of no avail. We admonished him that death is an inevitable end. Then, he said, I know. I just weep for my brother’s death abode and the torture he is in. We asked, “Did Allah enable you to know the Unseen?” He said,” Of course not, but when I buried him and people went away I sat down by his grave. Meanwhile, I heard a sound of distress. I heard someone crying.” Oh, they left me alone to suffer the torture. I was praying, and fasting. Then, I wept and out of pity I began to snatch the grave to see him. The grave was full of fire and I noticed a circle of fire around his neck. Out of pity I extended my arm to extricate him from such circle of fire. No sooner did I extend my hand than my fingers were burnt. Then, the man showed us his burnt hand. He went on saying, I hoarded the earth over him again and went away. Thus, how can I keep patient after I have seen how he is. We, then, asked, "What did your brother do in this world?" He replied.

"Bai biya Zakkah ba." Muka ce, "Wannan yana daidai da faɗin Allah, {Kada waɗanda suke yin rowa da abin da Allah ya ba su daga falalarsa su yi zaton cewa hakan alheri ne a gare su. A'a, sharri ne a gare su. Za a ɗaure abin da suka yi rowarsa da shi a wuyansu a ranar Kiyama.} (Ali-Imran: 180)

“He did not pay Zakat." We said, "This is in accordance with Allah's saying, {And not those who covetously withhold of the gifts which Allah hath given them of His Grace, think that it is good for them: Nay, it will be the worse for them: Soon it will be tied to their neck like a twisted collar on the day of Judgment.} (Al-Imran: 180)

Saboda haka, ɗan'uwanka yana fuskantar azaba tun yanzu a cikin kabarinsa har zuwa Ranar Alƙiyama.

Your brother, therefore, is being tortured in advance in his grave until the Day of Judgment.

Bayan haka, mun wuce zuwa wajen Abu Dharr, sahabin Annabi, muka ba shi labarin wannan mutumin. Mun kuma ce: "Idan wani Bayahude ko Banasare ya mutu, ba ma ganin suna shan azaba irin wannan," sai ya ce: "Lallai suna cikin Wutar Jahannama. Allah kawai yana nuna muku gidan Musulmai don ku koyi darasi. Allah Mai girma da daukaka yana cewa, {Lallai hujjoji sun zo muku daga Ubangijinku (domin su bude idanunku): Duk wanda ya gani, to don amfanin kansa ne, duk wanda ya makance, to don cutar kansa ne. Ni ba mai tsaron ayyukanku ba ne.} (Al-An'am: 104)" ﷺ

Afterwards, we went ahead to Abu Dharr., the Prophet's companion, and told him this man's story. We also said, "When a Jew or a Christian dies, we do not notice them suffering like that," He said; "They are undoubtedly in the Hell-fire. Allah just shows you the abode of the Muslims to learn the lesson. Allah, the Most High, says, {Now have come to you, from your Lord proofs (to open your eyes): If any will see, it will be for (the good of) his own soul: If any will be blind it will be to his own (harm) I am not (here to watch over your doing.)} (AI-An' am: 104)
