What is the clear indication from the verse “And establish prayer and give zakah” regarding the prescription of prayer and zakah for the Children of Israel?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, may Allah reward you. The indication of the verse
And establish prayer and give zakah وأقيموا الصلاة وآتوا الزكاة
that prayer and zakah are prescribed for the previous nations was not clear to me. And this verse
Establish prayer and give zakah. أقيموا الصلاة وآتوا الزكاة


The Shaykh : Its meaning is: “Establish prayer and give zakah,” meaning? Yes. There is certainly a possibility here, because the context of the verse could be said to indicate this, but establishing prayer and giving zakah is found in the Torah; read the verse in the Torah and you will find it.

The questioner : Combining this verse with others?

The Shaykh : With others, yes.

The questioner : .................

The Shaykh : No, no, a young boy; what is its meaning? A young boy who was serving the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
