Why do Pastors collect tithes and Imams don't?
Christians generate funds to run their churches via member's donations and offerings, including tithes. How do Muslims get their funds to run mosques?

..That's one of the beauty of Islam..the situation where you see imams asking for financial support from followers is mostly when they want to build new mosque,a stranger or traveller is in serious need,a sick person who doesn't have money for treatment, a Qur'anic competition program, etc...There is no single Muslim imam that owns a private jet..But there are so many Christian pastor that own private jets and so many things while most of their members are so poor.funny enough the poor members also gives tithes to these rich pastors..If any imam tries that,Muslim scholars will publicly preach against that imam,the followers will also not support him.But the reverse is the case with Christians,the pastors and even the followers will support & defend the pastors.

All do collect

Very myopic reasoning. You need deliverance from T.B. Joshua.

Because Pastors preach with Bible and in Bible their is an issue about tithe while Muslims preach with Quran and the Quran does not have anything to do with tithe.

Bible is our standard as a Christian, so obey it with all diligence

or an alfa trying to do juju for you.

Tithe is given to God not the Pastor. Most pastors have their jobs as bankers ,lecturers, business men . It's a voluntary service for 90% of them only few receive salary from their ministry . Church money forms not belong to pastor
