Pearl of Wisdom

about the verse: It is We who have dispensed among them their livelihood, 'Allah, the Exalted, told us that employment is one of the means of people's livelihood. He, in His wisdom, diversified their aspirations, motivations, and other states. Thus, He made man's employment of one another one of the means of people's livelihood ... If every one of us was forced to build for himself, make his own furniture, and produce everything himself... the world's conditions would not be bearable and people would not be able to endure them, and would find them impossible. But he ensured its management by diversifying their aspirations so that everyone performs for others that which is Employment compatible with his own capacity, in order for some of them to be served by others and for their conditions to be sound.'

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as]
Wasa'il al-Shi'a, v. 13, p. 244, no. 3

Question : #1249 Category: Zakaat & Khums
Subject: Future Income
Question: Asalaamun Alaikum,

I am under the taqleed of Ayatullah Sistani, may Allah be pleased with him.

I want to confirm if there is Khums applied on my end of service benefits, which will be due once I retire in about 3-4 years time. This income is certain but the amount is not confirmed.

Also, as my understanding of Khums calculation is not very clear, please suggest a book which gives a basic knowledge of it.
