'Assalam Alaikum Wa Rehmath Ullahi Wa Barkatahu.'

  Narrated Abu Huraira (Radi'Allahu Anhu) ...

PROPHET~ (Sall Allahu `Alaihi wa Sallam) said...

 "Anyone whom Allah has given wealth but he does not pay its Zakat, 
 then, on the Day of Resurrection... his wealth will be presented to him  
 in the shape of a bald-headed poisonous male snake  with two poisonous glands in its mouth and with two 

black  spots over the eyes... it will encircle itself round his neck and bite him over his cheeks and say...  

'I am your wealth~ I am your treasure.' 
 Then the Prophet (SallAllahu `Alaihi wa Sallam) recited this Divine Verse...

'And let not those who covetously withhold of the gifts which Allah Hath given them of His Grace,

 think that it is good for them...!Nay, it will be the worse for them ! 

 soon shall the things which they covetously withheld be tied to their necks like a twisted collar,on the Day of Judgment... !

To Allah belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do.'

{Source~Qur`an~Surat 'Āli `Imrān (Family of Imran) # 3~ A # 180}

{Source: of Hadith ~Sahih Bukhari~ Book #60, Hadith #88 &#24,& Hadith #486}
 Narrated Abu Dhar (Radi'Allahu anhu) ...

 Once I went to the Prophet ~and he (Sall'Allahu `Alaihi wa Sallam) said...

"By Allah in Whose Hands my Life is (or probably said)'By Allah, except Whom none has the right to be worshipped whoever had camels or cows or sheep 
 and did not pay their 'Zakat',  those animals will be brought on the Day of Resurrection
 far bigger and fatter than before and they will tread him under their hooves, and will butt him with their horns, 
 and (those animals will come in circle) When the last does its turn, the first will start again, 
and this punishment will go on  till Allah has finished the judgments amongst the people." 
{Source: Sahih Bukhari~ Book 
#24, Hadith #539)

Abu Huraira (Radi'Allahu anhu) reported...

 PROPHET  (SallAllahu `Alaihi wa Sallam) as saying..."If any owner of gold or silver does not pay what is

due on him, when the Day of Resurrection would come, plates of fire would be beaten out for him; 
these would then be heated in the fire of Hell and his sides, his forehead and his back 
 would be cauterized with them. Whenever these cool down, (the process is) repeated during a day 
the extent of which would be fifty thousand years, until judgment is pronounced among servants, 
 and he sees whether his path is to take him to Paradise or to Hell.  
It was said: Messenger of Allah, what about the camel ? 
 he (SallAllahu `Alaihi wa Sallam) said..
If any owner of the Camel does not pay what is due on him, and of his due in that (camel) is (also) to milk it on the day when it comes down to water.

When the Day of Resurrection comes a soft sandy plain would be set for him, as extensive as possible, (he will find) that not a single young one is missing, and they will trample him with their hoofs and bite him with their mouths.

As often as the first of them passes him, the last of them would be made to  return during  a day....the extent of which would be fifty thousand years, 
until judgment is pronounced among servants and he sees whether his path is to take him to Paradise 
or to Hell.

  It was again said ...what about cows (cattle) and sheep ?

 PROPHET ~(SallAllahu `Alaihi wa Sallam) said...If any owner of the cattle and sheep does not pay  what is due on them, when the

 Day of Resurrection comes a soft sandy plain would be spread for them,he will find none of them missing, 
with twisted horns, without horns or with a broken horn, and they will gore him with their horns 
and trample him with their hoofs. As often as the first of them passes him 
the last of them would be made to return to him during a day the extent of which would be

fifty thousand years...{!}until judgment would be pronounced among the servants. 
And he would be shown his path- leading him to Paradise or to Hell..."
