وَتَجِبُ الزَّكَاةُ فِي كُلِّ مَالٍ سَوَاءٌ كَانَ نَامِيًا فَاضِلًا عَنْ الْحَاجَةِ الْأَصْلِيَّةِ أَوْ لَا كَثِيَابِ الْبِذْلَةِ وَالْمِهْنَةِ، وَالْعَلُوفَةِ، وَالْحَمُولَةِ، وَالْعَمُولَةِ مِنْ الْمَوَاشِي، وَعَبِيدِ الْخِدْمَةِ وَالْمَسْكَنِ، وَالْمَرَاكِبِ، وَكِسْوَةِ الْأَهْلِ وَطَعَامِهِمْ، وَمَا يُتَجَمَّلُ بِهِ مِنْ آنِيَةٍ أَوْ لُؤْلُؤٍ أَوْ فُرُشٍ وَمَتَاعٍ لَمْ يُنْوَ بِهِ التِّجَارَةُ، وَنَحْوِ ذَلِكَ. بدائع الصنائع في ترتيب الشرائع(11/2)
