(يَجِبُ أَخْذُ الْكَمِّيَّةِ الْوَاجِبَةِ فَقَطْ فِي الزَّكَاةِ)
(Only the obligatory amount should be taken as zakat)
Mishkat al-Masabih 1801 — Only the obligatory amount should be taken
وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْمُعْتَدِي فِي الصَّدَقَةِ كَمَانِعِهَا» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد وَالتِّرْمِذِيّ
Anas reported God’s messenger as saying, “He who collects more sadaqa than is due is like him who refuses to pay it.” * Abu Dawud and Tirmidhi transmitted it. * Meaning that the sin committed by both is similar in its seriousness.
