الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):
إنّما وُضِعَتِ الزَّكاةُ اختِبارا للأغنِياءِ ومَعُونَةً لِلفُقَراءِ، ولَو أنَّ الناسَ أدَّوا زكاةَ أموالِهِم ما بَقِيَ مسلمٌ فَقيرا مُحتاجا، ولَاسْتَغنى بما فَرَضَ اللّهُ عزّوجلّ لَهُ، وإنّ الناسَ ما افتَقَرُوا، ولا احتاجُوا، ولا جاعُوا، ولا عَرُوا إلّا ب

The alms-tax has been prescribed as a test for the rich and an aid to the poor. If people duly paid the alms-tax on their wealth, there would not remain a single poor or needy Muslim, and all would suffice themselves through what Allah has prescribed. Verily people are only impoverished, needy, hungry and naked as a result of the sins of the wealthy.
