سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ مَانِعُ الزَّكَاةِ يُطَوَّقُ بِحَيَّةٍ قَرْعَاءَ وَ تَأْكُلُ مِنْ دِمَاغِهِ وَ ذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ سَيُطَوَّقُونَ ما بَخِلُوا بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيامَةِ.
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Fazzal, from Al iBin Uqba, from Ayoub Bin Rashid who said, ‘I heard Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘The preventer of the <span class="iTxt">Zakāt</span> would be collared with a bald snake, and it would eat from his brain; and that is in the Words of the Mighty and Majestic <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:3#h180"><a href="/books/quran:3#h180">[3:180]</a></a> they shall have what they were niggardly of to cleave to their necks on the Day of Judgement</span>’.
