Abu Basir says: Shoeb came to Imam al-Sadeq and presented him with a bag of dinars.
"Is this zakat or gift?" Imam asked.
After remaining silent for a while, Shoeb said, "It is both zakat and gift."
"We do not need zakat," Imam said and put his hand in the bag, took out a handful of dinars and returned them to Shoeb.
When we left, we asked Shoeb about how much zakat was there in the bag.
Said: "As much as the Imam had returned to me. By God, there was not a piece more or less.“
(Ithbat al-Hudaat)
Note: Zakat is forbidden on the generation of the Prophet PBUH.
