The concept and principles of Bait al-Mal have been highlighted in detail in the hadiths of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. : "The best of you is he who spends his wealth in the way of Allah and helps people." The Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever is responsible for the affairs of the people, he should distribute the wealth of the treasury among those who deserve it and should not commit any kind of betrayal." (Sahih Muslim) These hadiths emphasize that the wealth of the Bait Al-Mal should be used for the welfare of the people, and there is no room for betrayal. is run.
