Question 2013: Is it permissible to accept prizes from unjust rulers and to consume gifts, wealth, and food from the employees of tyrannical rulers?
✅ Answer: Pay attention to the following narrations:
1⃣عَنْ أَبِی وَلَّادٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّه مَا تَرَی فِی رَجُلٍ یَلِی أَعْمَالَ السُّلْطَانِ لَیْسَ لَهُ مَکْسَبٌ إِلَّا مِنْ أَعْمَالِهِمْ وَ أَنَا أَمُرُّ بِهِ فَأَنْزِلُ عَلَیْهِ فَیُضِیفُنِی وَ یُحْسِنُ إِلَیَّ وَ رُبَّمَا أَمَرَ لِی بِالدِّرْهَمِ وَ الْکِسْوَةِ وَ قَدْ ضَاقَ صَدْرِی مِنْ ذَلِکَ فَقَالَ لِی کُلْ وَ خُذْ مِنْهُ فَلَکَ الْمَهْنَأُ وَ عَلَیْهِ الْوِزْرُ.
📚 Al-Tahdhib, Vol. 6, p. 338
Abi Walad says: I said to Imam Sadiq, peace be upon him: What do you say about a person who undertakes work for the ruler and has no means of livelihood other than working for them? I pass by him and stay with him, and he hosts me, shows me kindness, and sometimes orders that I be given dirhams or clothing, but my heart feels uneasy about it. The Imam said to me: Eat from it and take it, for its enjoyment is yours, and its burden is upon him!
2⃣عَنْ أَبِی الْمَغْرَاءِ قَالَ: سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَ أَنَا عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ أَصْلَحَکَ اللَّهُ أَمُرُّ بِالْعَامِلِ فَیُجِیزُنِی بِالدَّرَاهِمِ آخُذُهَا قَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ وَ أَحُجُّ بِهَا قَالَ نَعَمْ.
📚 Al-Tahdhib, Vol. 6, p. 338
Abi al-Mughra says: A man asked Imam Sadiq, peace be upon him, in my presence, saying: May Allah rectify your affairs! I pass by an agent or employee of the ruler, and he rewards me with dirhams. Should I take them? He said: Yes! I said: Should I perform Hajj with it? He said: Yes!
3⃣عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ أَوْ غَیْرِهِ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِی عَبْداللَّهِ أَمُرُّ بِالْعَامِلِ فَیَصِلُنِی بِالصِّلَةِ أَقْبَلُهَا قَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ وَ أَحُجُّ مِنْهَا قَالَ نَعَمْ وَ حُجَّ مِنْهَا.
📚 Al-Tahdhib, Vol. 6, p. 338
Muhammad ibn Hisham or someone else says: I said to Imam Sadiq, peace be upon him: I pass by an agent or employee of the ruler, and he gives me a gift. Should I accept it? He said: Yes! I said: Should I perform Hajj with it? He said: Yes! Perform Hajj with it!
4⃣عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ: لَا بَأْسَ بِجَوَائِزِ السُّلْطَانِ.
📚 Nawadir Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa, p. 163
Imam Baqir, peace be upon him, said: There is no problem with the prizes of the ruler!
5⃣ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ ظَرِیفٍ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ عُلْوَانَ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِیهِ أَنَّ الْحَسَنَ وَ الْحُسَیْنَ کَانَا یَغْمِزَانِ مُعَاوِیَةَ وَ یَقَعَانِ فِیهِ وَ یَقْبَلَانِ جَوَائِزَهُ.
📚 Qurb al-Isnad, p. 45
Imam Sadiq, peace be upon him, narrated from his father that indeed Imam Hasan and Imam Husayn, peace be upon them, would point out the flaws of Muawiya, speak behind his back, and accept his prizes!
6⃣عَنْ مفضل بْنِ قَیْسِ بْنِ رُمَّانَةَ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَی أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَذَکَرْتُ لَهُ بَعْضَ حَالِی فَقَالَ یَا جَارِیَةُ هَاتِی ذَلِکَ الْکِیسَ هَذِهِ أَرْبَعُمِائَةِ دِینَارٍ وَصَلَنِی بِهَا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ فَخُذْهَا وَ تَفَرَّجْ بِهَا الْحَدِیثَ.
📚 Al-Kafi, Vol. 4, p. 21
Mufaddal ibn Qays says: I visited Imam Sadiq, peace be upon him, and mentioned some of my circumstances; the Imam said: O maid! Bring that pouch! This is four hundred dinars that Mansur Dawaniqi gave me as a gift! Take it and relieve your hardship with it!
7⃣عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِیِّ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ السِّنْدِیِّ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِی عُمَیْرٍ عَنْ جَمِیلِ بْنِ دَرَّاجٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ وَ زُرَارَةَ قَالا سَمِعْنَاهُ یَقُولُ جَوَائِزُ الْعُمَّالِ لَیْسَ بِهَا بَأْسٌ.
📚 Al-Tahdhib, Vol. 6, p. 336
Muhammad ibn Muslim and Zurara say: We heard (the Imam) say: There is no problem with the prizes and gifts of the agents and employees of the ruler!
✅ Based on the above narrations and others, the gifts, prizes, food, and kindness from tyrannical rulers and their employees, agents, and workers are permissible for us, and we can even perform Hajj with them, even if they have no income other than working for the tyrant. However, the burden and sin of earning through service to the tyrant fall upon them!
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَی مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَجِّلْ لِوَلِیِّکَ الْفَرَجَ وَ الْعَافِیَةَ وَ النَّصْر

⛔️⛔️ ⛔️ Warning! Warning! Warning ⛔️⛔️⛔️
Unfortunately, the fitna (trial) of artificial intelligence is spreading among Shia, with some people asking religious questions from AI—sometimes out of curiosity, sometimes for amusement, and sometimes to seek answers. AI, with astonishing cunning and elegance, is fabricating hadiths with a highly polished appearance, providing false and baseless information in response to questions. These contents are being circulated in cyberspace, and if the spread of these fabricated hadiths is not stopped, it will soon spiral out of control, circulating among the masses in a way that turns into an uncontrollable corruption and fitna, posing a grave danger to Shia in the future!
✅ Regrettably, some scholars are also seeking certain matters and religious rulings from AI, sharing them in groups and channels, and contributing to this enormous fitna, which is deeply lamentable!
✅ Before it’s too late, we must wake up and awaken others. All those with a platform in cyberspace must warn their audiences and, at the very least, strictly avoid the religious section of AI!
✅ Since, unfortunately, even some knowledgeable individuals have not taken this matter seriously and are not warning their virtual and real audiences, we and you must exercise utmost caution in the sources from which we take hadiths. We should not trust unverified sources, especially in cyberspace, nor refer to AI even for testing purposes, nor forward AI-generated content to anyone!
✅ In the past 24 hours, four more beautiful but fabricated hadiths from AI were sent to me by individuals for verification!
✅ Please take this seriously and convey this warning to cyberspace users!
⛔️If we fall short in raising awareness and taking action in this regard, I sense a tremendous danger in the near future ⛔️
✅ This great fitna is in its early stages and can be controlled with the cooperation of all believers, especially scholars. If there is no cooperation, it is unclear where it might lead!
