659. Fātimah bint Qais narrated that she asked – or, the Prophet ﷺ was asked – about Zakāt, and he
said: "Indeed there is a duty on wealth aside from Zakāt." Then he recited this Āyah which is in Al-Baqarah: 'It is not Al-Birr (piety, righteousness) that you turn your faces.' (Al-Baqarah 2:177) (Ḍa'if)

Commentary
It is said in this Verse 'he paid the Zakāt' in addition to that it is also said 'he spent the wealth in spite of love for it' he spent on close relatives, poor, wayfarers, those who ask for it and to set the slaves free. It is known from this Verse that besides the Zakāt which is a compulsory and a specified duty, there are other various rights due from the wealth which are provisional and temporary and they are related to the catastrophic incidents and needs.
