The Khums among the Twelver Shia and its doctrinal roots

The Khums among the Twelver Shi'a (Rafidha) has always been one of the main reasons that drive Shi'a scholars to expand the dissemination of their doctrine, keep the disagreement between them and the Sunnis, and broaden its scope. If it were not for this money, the disagreement between the Twelvers and the rest of the Islamic nation would not have persisted to this extent. Many of their jurists are keen on fueling this disagreement for the sake of these funds. The Rafidha have given great attention to the Khums in their sources, considering anyone who considers a dirham of it lawful as an unbeliever, and they have declared the people of Islam as disbelievers because of that. There is no escape or way for Muslims to rid themselves of the stigma of disbelief and the supposed deserved punishment except by giving their money to the Rafidha clerics in hopes of salvation and purification! This is a scholarly study of the subject of Khums and what relates to it among the Twelver Shi'a; it relied on their sources, which are the main basis of their rulings and the reference for their jurists, and this study also paid attention to consulting the statements of their contemporary clerics.
