Ibn Rumayh said:
The yearly income of al-Layth ibn Sa'd was 80,000 deenaars, [and despite this immense wealth] never did Allaah obligate upon him to extract even one dirham in zakaah[*].
al-Hilyah - Volume 7 / Page 322
[*] This is because he would charitably give plenteously throughout the year, such that he would then have a humble amount left for himself and his family. |
