EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith discusses the importance of paying taxes and tithes. Taxes are payments made to a government or ruler in order to support public services, while tithes are payments made to religious organizations or charities. According to this hadith, it is an obligation for Muslims to pay both taxes and tithes as part of their faith. Paying these amounts is seen as a way for Muslims to show their gratitude for all that they have been given by God. It also serves as a reminder that everything we have comes from God, so we should be generous with what we have been blessed with in order to help those who are less fortunate than us.
