Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ فَرَضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم زَكَاةَ رَمَضَانَ عَلَى الْحُرِّ وَالْعَبْدِ وَالذَّكَرِ وَالأُنْثَى صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ فَعَدَلَ النَّاسُ بِهِ نِصْفَ صَاعٍ مِنْ بُرٍّ ‏.‏

Translation

Imran ibn Musa reported from Abd al-Warith, who said: Ayyub narrated to us, from Nafi, from Ibn Umar, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prescribed the zakah of Ramadan for the free person and the slave, male and female: one sa of dates or one sa of barley. People equated that with half a sa of wheat.

Translation notes
  • The report distinguishes the stated one-sa amounts of dates or barley from the half-sa wheat equivalence attributed to people.
