Pearl of Wisdom

Imam 'Ali (AS) to Shurayh, 'Know that Muslims are equitable [and admissible as witnesses] towards one another, except for one who has been lashed on account of a crime and has not repented for it [and is therefore, still resentful as a result], one who is known to give false testimony, and one who is a suspect himself.?

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as]
Kitab man Id yahdurahi al-Faqih, v. 3, p. 15, no. 3243

Question : #382 Category: Business / Investment
Subject: government intervention
Question: Some governments are committed to providing housing for the needy under specific circumstances. Is it permissible for a Muslim to buy a house in which he resides for a short time (so that he will not be liable for khums [on that house]), and then he gives it out on rent so he can then go and live in a house subsidized by the government?
Answer: Khums is not waived from a house just by living in it for a short while without actually being in need of it, as has been presumed in the question.
