سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ اَلْحَجَّاجِ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَقُولُ:» إِنَّ أَصْحَابَ أَبِي أَتَوْهُ فَسَأَلُوهُ عَمَّا يَأْخُذُهُ اَلسُّلْطَانُ فَرَقَّ لَهُمْ وَ إِنَّهُ لَيَعْلَمُ أَنَّ اَلزَّكَاةَ لاَ تَحِلُّ إِلاَّ لِأَهْلِهَا فَأَمَرَهُمْ أَنْ يَحْتَسِبُوا بِهِ فَجَازَ ذَا وَ اَللَّهِ لَهُمْ فَقُلْتُ أَيْ أَبَهْ إِنَّهُمْ إِنْ سَمِعُوا ذَلِكَ لَمْ يُزَكِّ أَحَدٌ فَقَالَ» أَيْ بُنَيَّ حَقٌّ أَحَبَّ اَللَّهُ أَنْ يُظْهِرَهُ««.

Translation

Sa’ad ibn Abdullah, from Abu Jafar, from al-Husayn ibn Said, from Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr, from Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Hajjaj, from Sulayman ibn Khalid, who said: I heard Abu Abdillah (a.s), recalling: “The companions of my father (Imam al-Baqir (a.s)) came to him and asked him about ‘what the ruler takes’, so he felt compassion for them, while he certainly knew that zakat is not lawful except for its people. So he (Imam al-Baqir (a.s)) commanded them to count it as such, and by Allah (swt), that was valid for them.” So I (Imam al-Sadiq (a.s)) asked: “O my father, if they hear that, no one will pay zakat.” So Imam al-Baqir (a.s) said: “O son, it’s a truth that Allah (swt) loved to make manifest.”
