divided into two parts Sayyids* are "titled to get one part of it and it
should be given to a sayyid who is indigent or an orphan or who has become
penniless while travelling. The second part belongs to the holy Imam and during
the present time it should be given to a fully qualified mujtahid or spent for
such purposes as may be confirmed by that mujtahid. In case, however, a person
gives the share of the holy Imam to a mujtahid whom he does not follow he
should, on the basis of obligatory precaution, obtain permission in this behalf
from the mujtahid whom he follows and such a permission will be accorded only
when he knows that both the mujtahids spend the share of the holy Imam in one
and the same manner.

given to a Sayyid who is poor, or orphan, or who has become stranded without money

present time it should be given to a Mujtahid, who fulfils all conditions, or
be spent for such purposes as allowed by that Mujtahid. As an obligatory
precaution, that Mujtahid must be Aalam, and well versed in public affairs.

Sayyid.

whose taqlid is being done and that Mujtahid whom he wanted to give it, both

TRADITION OF THE INFALLIBLES AS
1.
Traditionalist
narrated to Imam Abu Abdullah AS that he said “Do you know from where does the
adultery enters into the people, I said I do not know. Imam AS said that is due
to non payment of Khums to us who are Ahlebait AS. But our shias who pay the Khums,
their children shall be lawful”.
2.
Traditionalist
narrated to Imam Jaffer Sadiq AS that he said “The day of Judgment will be hard
for the people when the Personage of Khums i.e. Imam AS will stand up and pray
“O My Lord My Khums” that is He will ask for his right. And we have made it
righteous for our shias so as their children become righteous.
WaAAlamoo annama ghanimtum min
shayin faanna lillahi khumusahu walirrasooli walithee alqurba walyatama
walmasakeeni wabni assabeeli …
8:41
And know that out of all that ye may acquire, a fifth share is assigned to
Allah,- and to the Messenger, and to near relatives, orphans, the needy, and
the wayfarer,-
Tafseer:- In the books
Kaafi and Tahzeeb it is narrated to Imam Ali AS that “We are meant by walithee alqurba in this verse whom Allah has joint along with His being and His Prophet.
And by walyatama walmasakeeni wabni assabeeli our orphans, needy and wayfarer are
meant. That is why Allah has not fixed any share in sadaqat for us and this way
Allah has showered His mercy on us and His Prophet SW by saving us from eating
the rubbish of the people”. In the book Tahzeeb it is narrated to Imam Mohammad
Baqir AS that “The shares in the Khums of Allah, Prophet SW and walithee alqurba (because of the relation to the Prophet) is the right of the Imam AS
and by walyatama the orphans of the Progeny of the Prophet SW are meant and
by walmasakeeni wabni assabeeli the needy and the wayfarer and
travelers of the Progeny of the Prophet SW are meant. Thus Khums shall not be given to others than them.
In
the book Tafseer Qummi it is being narrated that out of all that ye may
acquire, a fifth share is assigned for Khums and which shall be divided into 6
shares. Thus one will be for Allah,- one will be for the Messenger, one will be
for the Messenger’s near relatives which are Imams AS. Thus Imam is inherited
for the shares of Allah and His Messenger. This way out of six shares, three
will be for Imam AS and the remaining three shares will be for the orphans, the
needy, and the wayfarer of the Progeny of the Prophet SW. Now out of the six
shares the three have been assigned to the Imam AS because it is the
responsibility of the Imams AS the same way as Allah has made the Prophet SW
responsible for the well being of the orphans, helping muslims, payback their
debts, arrange for them things which are required in Haj and Jehad.
It is also proved with the
saying of the Prophet SW when Allah has revealed this verse unto him in which
Allah has said that “The Prophet SW has authority on the lives of the Momineen
more than them and Prophet SW is the Father of Momineen”. When Allah has made
the Prophet SW the father of Momineen then he will be the same way responsible
for them as the father will be for his sons. Thus at that time the Prophet SW
said “Whoever leave behind his wealth it is for his successors and whoever
leave behind a debt I will be responsible for its repayment and if a person
leave behind his property and if there is no successor to it then that property
will be handed to me. Thus how the Eminence of the Prophet SW was there the
Eminence is same for the Imams AS. That is why out of six shares three are
fixed for Imam AS.
Note:- All the Mujtahids
are of the opinion that Khums have two sections, One section is for Sadaat. But
the saying of the Mujtahids that during the present times the section of Imam
AS be given to the Mujtahids and to this claim they are unable to present one
hadith in which it is obligatory to give the section of Imam AS Khums to the
Mujathid.
In the verse of Quran
Innallah la yagferu ayn yushreka behi wayagfir ma doona
zalika lemaiyashao
Indeed Allah will not
forgive those who do shirk and other than these He will forgive those whom He
wanted to.
Tafseer:- In the tafseer
Ayaashi it is narrated to Imam Mohammad Baqir AS in the tafseer of this verse
it has been said “The meaning of Innallah
la yagferu ayn yushreka behi is that Allah will never forgive that person
who rejects the wilayath of Ali AS. The meaning of wayagfir ma doona zalika lemaiyashao is that He will forgive them
who are friends of Ali AS.
It has been asked to Imam
Jaffer Sadiq AS that what is the initial form of Shirk is? Imam AS replied
“Adding from themselves one thing in the religion and do friendship and enmity
with the people on it.
In the Book Tawheed it is
being narrated to Imam Ali AS that he said “I love this verse more than any
verse in the Quran.
In the
light of this verse and its tafseer of the Infallibles all the Mujtahids has
turned out to be Mushriks. Their further sayings after claiming to be Nayeb of
Imam AS that If a person says that he is a sayyid Khums should be given to him
only when two just (Aadil) persons confirm that he is a sayyid Then it is to be noted by every intellectual
person that when Ayatullah Mohammad Ali Araki who is confirmed non Sayyid then
how come he is eligible for the Sahem Imam? And how can anybody do taqlid of a
Mushrik?
We had also
very open proved for the intellectual person that in the way how the share of
Allan and His Prophet SW has been assigned to the Imam AS that is un- presents
share have been assigned to the present. The righteous share holder of the
Khums who is present and is in hiding but before going into hiding he has
allowed his assigned share in favor of Shias.
And in this Hadith there is no were given that it is meant for
Mujtahids.
