1063. If a person deliberately raises one of the seven parts of the body while reciting the dhikr of sujÙd, his prayer is invalid if he is culpable for his ignorance.

1776. If the wealth acquired by a poor person from the dues of khums or ZakÁt exceed his yearly expenditure, obligatory precaution will dictate that he pays khums on it.

If a person purchases a commodity with the very money whose khums has not been paid, informing the seller that he would be paying for the transaction with that very money, the transaction will be valid as long as the ÎÁkim al-shar‘ allows using one-fifth of it in a transaction. The buyer will then have to submit one fifth of the commodity to the ÎÁkim al-shar‘. However if he does not allow to it, the transaction with respect to that amount is invalid. Therefore, if the money acquired by the seller is still available, the ÎÁkim al-shar‘ will take one-fifth of that. However, if it is no longer available, he will demand an equivalent to that one-fifth from the seller or the buyer.
1778. If a person buys a commodity on credit, and then pays for it with money on which khums has not been paid, the transaction will be valid. The buyer will however be in debt to the seller for one fifth of the payment. As for the amount that was paid, if it is still available, the ÎÁkim al-shar‘ will take one fifth of it. If it is no longer available, he may demand its replacement from the buyer or the seller.
1779. If a person purchases a commodity on which khums has not been paid, and should the ÎÁkim al-shar’ not permit the transaction of one fifth of it, one fifth of the transaction will be invalid, and the ÎÁkim al-shar’ may confiscate one fifth of it. In the event the ÎÁkim shar’ permits it, the transaction is valid and the purchaser should pay an equivalent to the one fifth of its payment to the ÎÁkim al-shar’.

If the commodity that a person purchases for trade appreciates in value, and he does not sell it until after the completion of his financial year, in the hope that its value would further appreciate, then should the commodity decrease in value, he will not be liable to pay khums for the increase in value so long as the period of time he kept the commodity is common between businessmen. However, if he kept it for a period more than that without a justifiable reason, obligatory precaution will dictate that he pay khums on the increased value.
1787. If a person possesses non-trade property, which is not liable to khums, and if he has inherited it, he will not be liable to pay khums on the appreciated value, even if he sells it. The same will apply if he became its owner without an exchange, regardless of whether it was not liable for khums from beginning, such as a needed place of residence that has been gifted to him and has been utilized as a part of his yearly expenditure, or it was liable for khums and its khums was paid from the property itself, such as a property that is owned by hiyÁzah (acquisition of unclaimed land), the khums of which has been paid.
However, if he comes to own it through an exchange, and its value increases, he will not be liable to pay khums on it as long as he does not sell it. Should he sell it, then if the non-trade property is not part of his expenditure, the appreciated value is liable to khums. If it however is a part of his expenditure, the obligatory precaution will be that he pays khums on the appreciated value. In both cases, if it is spent on his yearly expenditure, it will not be liable to khums.

However, in the event that he has not paid khums on the tree, and it has grown, he will have to pay khums on the tree itself, and the growth of the khums, and the growth of his own share.
1790. If a person has numerous sources of income, for example, he receives rent from a property, trades merchandize, and cultivates land for agriculture, he should pay khums of the acquired profit from all the sources of income that exceed his yearly expenditure.
