Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنٌ، عَنْ زَائِدَةَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي رَوَّادٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ كَانَ النَّاسُ يُخْرِجُونَ عَنْ صَدَقَةِ الْفِطْرِ، فِي عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ أَوْ تَمْرٍ أَوْ سُلْتٍ أَوْ زَبِيبٍ .
Translation
Musa ibn Abd al-Rahman reported: Husayn narrated to us, from Zaidah, who said: Abd al-Aziz ibn Abi Rawwad narrated to us, from Nafi, from Ibn Umar, who said: In the time of the Prophet ﷺ, people used to give the sadaqat al-fitr as one sa of barley, dates, sult, or raisins.
