Bayhaqi Q13126 — Dividing the charities according to the division

قَالَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: {إِنَّمَا الصَّدَقَاتُ لِلْفُقَرَاءِ وَالْمَسَاكِينِ وَالْعَامِلِينَ عَلَيْهَا وَالْمُؤَلَّفَةِ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَفِي الرِّقَابِ وَالْغَارِمِينَ وَفِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَابْنِ السَّبِيلِ} [التوبة: 60] قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: فَأَحْكَمَ اللهُ فَرْضَ الصَّدَقَاتِ فِي كِتَابِهِ ثُمَّ أَكَّدَهَا فَقَالَ: {فَرِيضَةً مِنَ اللهِ} [النساء: 11] قَالَ: وَقَدْ رُوِيَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ فِي حَدِيثِ الصُّدَائِيِّ: " إِنَّ اللهَ لَمْ يَرْضَ فِيهَا بقسْمِ مَلَكٍ مُقَرَّبٍ وَلَا نَبِيٍّ مُرْسَلٍ حَتَّى قَسَمَهَا ".
Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, says: "The sadaqat (zakah) are only for the poor, the needy, those employed to administer them, those whose hearts are to be reconciled, for freeing necks (slaves), for those in debt, in the way of Allah, and for the traveller." [Surah al-Tawbah: 60]
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Allah Almighty made the obligation of the sadaqat firm in His Book, then He emphasised it further, saying: '(This is) an obligation from Allah.' [Surah al-Tawbah: 60]"
He said: "And it has been narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said in the hadith of al-Suda'i (Sayyiduna Ziyad bin al-Harith al-Suda'i, may Allah be pleased with him): 'Indeed Allah Almighty was not pleased, concerning it (zakah), with the division of any angel brought near or any prophet sent, until He Himself divided it.'"
