Hadith 1565

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ الرَّازِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ بْنِ طَارِقٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ، أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَطَاءٍ أَخْبَرَهُ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَدَّادِ بْنِ الْهَادِ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : دَخَلْنَا عَلَى عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَتْ : دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَرَأَى فِي يَدَيَّ فَتَخَاتٍ مِنْ وَرِقٍ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا هَذَا يَا عَائِشَةُ ؟ " فَقُلْتُ : صَنَعْتُهُنَّ أَتَزَيَّنُ لَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : " أَتُؤَدِّينَ زَكَاتَهُنَّ ؟ " قُلْتُ : لَا ، أَوْ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ، قَالَ : " هُوَ حَسْبُكِ مِنَ النَّارِ " .
Narrated Abdallah bin Shaddad bin Al Had: We entered upon Aishah, wife of the Prophet ﷺ. She said The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon me and saw two silver rings in my hand. He asked What is this, Aishah? I said I have made two ornaments myself for you, Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He asked Do you pay zakat on them? I said No or I said Whatever Allah willed. He said this is sufficient for you (to take you) to the Hell fire.

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
1565. English Commentary:
➊ This and the aforementioned ahadith are evidence that zakah is obligatory even on jewelry used for adornment.
➋ It is incumbent upon the authority (wali al-amr) and those who call to Islam (du‘at) to constantly remind people of their ultimate end. It is concern for the Hereafter that leads to the rectification of deeds and the development of sincerity within them.
➌ It is a legal (shar‘i) and moral duty of women that they adorn and beautify themselves solely for the pleasure of their husbands.
