Likewise, his giving a sword to Ahban ibn Saifi"

And from this category is Abu Bakr's fighting against those who withheld zakah. Although it was a linguistic innovation, in that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not fight anyone solely for the payment of zakah, when he saidRiyad as-Salihin 1209 and it is known that zakah is part of that right, so the one who withholds zakah is not protected, as explained in the other authentic hadith Sahih Muslim 22 This is a broad category"
