[Machine] The Messenger of Allahﷺ prescribed giving Sadaqat al-Fitr (charity of Ramadan) on males, females, free people, and slaves, which is one Sa'a (measurement) of dates or one Sa'a of barley. People then started giving it in half a Sa'a of wheat. Ayyub said, and Nafi said, "Ibn Umar used to give dates except for one year when dates were scarce, so he gave barley."
فَرَضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَدَقَةَ رَمَضَانَ عَلَى الذَّكَرِ وَالْأُنْثَى وَالْحُرِّ وَالْمَمْلُوكِ صَاعَ تَمْرٍ أَوْ صَاعَ شَعِيرٍ قَالَ فَعَدَلَ النَّاسُ بِهِ بَعْدُ نِصْفَ صَاعِ بُرٍّ قَالَ أَيُّوبُ وَقَالَ نَافِعٌ كَانَابْنُ عُمَرَ يُعْطِي التَّمْرَ إِلَّا عَامًا وَاحِدًا أَعْوَزَ التَّمْرُ فَأَعْطَى الشَّعِيرَ
