Giving of Zakat is from al-Eemaan
Taken from
Silsilah Ahadeeth As-Saheehah

The Muhaddith, Shaykh, Allamaa’
Muhammad Naasiruddeen al-Albaani

No. 1046 – The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam- said:
‘There are three things, whoever does them then he has tasted the flavour of Eemaan: whoever worshipped Allaah Alone, and there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and whoever gives of his wealth as a means of goodness from himself being concerned to give it every year, not giving (from livestock) which is old and decrepit, mangy or sick or an animal that is small and unpleasant which is stingy with its milk, but rather he gives from the average of his wealth as indeed Allaah does not ask you for the best of it and He does not order the worst of it.’
Shaykh Al-Albaani said:
‘In the narrations of Tabarani and al-Bayhaqi an extra wording mentions:
‘And he purified his soul. So a man said: ‘and what is purifying the soul?’ He said: ‘That he knows that Allaah –Azza wa Jal – is with him wherever he is.’
This chain is authentic.
Benefit: the saying of the Messenger -sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam- :‘that Allaah –Azza wa Jal – is with him wherever he is.’
‘Imaam Muhammad bin Yahya ad-Dhuhali said: ‘He meant that Allaah’s Knowledge is in every place, whilst Allaah is upon His ‘Arsh.’
This was quoted by Hafidh Dhahabi in his book ‘al-Uloo’ No. 73, with my research and summary. As for the saying of the common folk and many of the notable people that Allaah is present in every place or in everything that exists, by which they mean His physical presence, then this is misguidance. Rather it (this saying) is taken from the statement ‘Wahdatul Wajood’ (Unity of existence) propagated by the extreme Soofis, those who do not differentiate between The Creator and the creation who believe, as one of their senior ones said: ‘everything that you see with your eyes is Allaah!’
May Allaah be exalted far and high above what they say about Him.’
All Praise belongs to Allaah, may His peace
and blessings be upon our final
Prophet Muhammad, his
Family, his Companions
and all those who
follow his
guidance.
