EI cannot find any incident during this caliphate that anyone had come and given Khums to Imam Ali
(a.s). This was also the case for Imam Hasan (a.s) and Husayn (a.s)... After this was the period of Imam
Zayn Ul Abideen (a.s) and Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s). I cannot see any incident of anyone paying
khums to them (a.s) as well.H

EHowever, there are certain incidents during the time of Imam Ja'far Al Sadiq (a.s.) where some people
used to bring some wealth to them but we should be careful not to misunderstand this. Sometimes the
Shiites used to bring presents and gifts to him (a.s.) and not in the name of Khums (pg.42) With the
government collecting the tax as well, the Imam (a.s.) decided to forgive his right on the Shiites by giving
them double taxation relief (pg.43) The period of the Imams (a.s.) after Imam Ja'far Al Sadiq (a.s.) was
even more difficult as they (a.s.) used to be under scrutiny of the hostile governments of their time
(pg.44).H
