Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.

Mahmud ibn Ghaylan told us: Abu Dawud told us, from Shubah, from al-Amash, who said: I heard Abu Wail narrate from Amr ibn al-Harith, the nephew of Zaynab, the wife of Abdullah, from Zaynab, the wife of Abdullah, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, a report similar to it. Abu Isa said: This is sounder than the hadith of Abu Muawiyah. Abu Muawiyah made a mistake in his narration, saying it was from Amr ibn al-Harith, from the nephew of Zaynab. The correct chain is from Amr ibn al-Harith, who was the nephew of Zaynab. It is also narrated from Amr ibn Shuaib, from his father, from his grandfather, from the Prophet, that he ruled that zakah is due on jewelry. There is criticism of the chain of that hadith. Scholars differed on this matter. Some scholars among the Companions of the Prophet and the Successors held that zakah is due on jewelry made of gold or silver. This is the view of Sufyan al-Thawri and Abdullah ibn al-Mubarak. Some Companions of the Prophet, including Ibn Umar, Aishah, Jabir ibn Abdullah, and Anas ibn Malik, said that no zakah is due on jewelry. This view is also narrated from some Successor jurists and is the view of Malik ibn Anas, al-Shafii, Ahmad, and Ishaq.
