The questioner : Yes. May Allah suffice me against you, O Shaykh. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) described zakah as being from the filth of people. Is this specific to the Household of the Prophet or for all people?
The Shaykh : People say:[At-Tawbah 9:103], just as when water is used to wash a vessel, the scattered residue is filth, and through it purification is achieved.
The Shaykh : People say:
Take, [O, Muhammad], from their wealth a charity by which you purify them
خُذْ مِنْ أَمْوَالِهِمْ صَدَقَةً تُطَهِّرُهُمْ
