Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, you mentioned (may Allah preserve you) in the lesson a hadith that begins with the words of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): “What prevented a people from receiving the completion of their wealth was their not paying the zakah.” What is the completion of this hadith, may Allah grant you success?

Answer:
It contains matters mentioned by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
Unless their leaders rule according to the Book of Allah and seek all good from that which Allah has revealed, Allah will cause them to fight one another.وما لم تحكم أئمتهم بكتاب الله إلا جعل الله بأسهم بينهم
Sunan Ibn Majah 4019Sahih (Darussalam)
It is a long hadith, one of its phrases being: "And a people did not withhold the zakah of their wealth except that the rain was withheld from the sky." If you wish to look into it, refer to *Al-Jawab al-Kafi* by Ibn al-Qayyim.
