3. Book of Zakāh (2/2)
٣۔ كِتَابُ الزَّكَاةِ ص ٢
"We used to pay Zakaul Fitr when the Messenger of Allah was among us; a Sa' of food, or a Sa' of barley, or a Sa' of dates, or a Sa' of raisins, or a Sa of cottage cheese." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2512)
«كُنَّا نُخْرِجُ زَكَاةَ الْفِطْرِ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ صَاعًا مِنْ طَعَامٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ زَبِيبٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ أَقِطٍ»
[Machine] We used to give our pledges to the Prophet ﷺ , and he mentioned something similar to it.
كُنَّا نُعْطِي عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ

٣۔٢٨ بَابُ كَرَاهِيَةِ أَنْ يَكُونَ الرَّجُلُ عَشَّارًا
I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: One who wrongfully takes an extra tax (sahib maks) will not enter Paradise. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2937)
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ صَاحِبُ مَكْسٍ» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد «يَعْنِي عَشَّارًا»
3.29 [Machine] Translation: "The Divine Decree in What is Rained down from the Sky and What is Watered by Irrigation
٣۔٢٩ بَابُ الْعُشْرِ فِيمَا سَقَتِ السَّمَاءُ وَفيمَا سُقِيَ بِالنَّضْحِ
"The Messenger of Allah sent me to Yemen and he commanded me to take one-tenth of whatever is irrigated by the sky, and half of one-tenth of whatever is irrigated by means of buckets." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2490)
«بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ آخُذَ مِنَ الثِّمَارِ مَا يَسْقِي بَعْلًا الْعُشْرَ وَمَا سُقِيَ بِالسَّانِيَةِ فَنِصْفَ الْعُشْرِ»
3.30 [Machine] In the pivot
٣۔٣٠ بَابٌ فِي الرِّكَازِ
Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no Diya for persons killed by animals or for the one who has been killed accidentally by falling into a well or for the one killed in a mine. And one-fifth of Rikaz (treasures buried before the Islamic era) is to be given to the state." (Using translation from Bukhārī 6912)
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «جُرْحُ الْعَجْمَاءِ جُبَارٌ وَالْبِئْرُ جُبَارٌ وَالْمَعْدِنُ جُبَارٌ وَفِي الرِّكَازِ الْخُمُسُ»
3.31 [Machine] What should be given to the workers of charity for whom?
٣۔٣١ بَابُ مَا يُهْدَى لِعُمَّالِ الصَّدَقَةِ لِمَنْ هُوَ
Messenger of Allah ﷺ employed an employee (to collect Zakat). The employee returned after completing his job and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! This (amount of Zakat) is for you, and this (other amount) was given to me as a present." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Why didn't you stay at your father's or mother's house and see if you would be given presents or not?" Then Messenger of Allah ﷺ got up in the evening after the prayer, and having testified that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and praised and glorified Allah as He deserved, he said, "Now then ! What about an employee whom we employ and then he comes and says, 'This amount (of Zakat) is for you, and this (amount) was given to me as a present'? Why didn't he stay at the house of his father and mother to see if he would be given presents or not? By Him in Whose Hand Muhammad's soul is, none of you will steal anything of it (i.e. Zakat) but will bring it by carrying it over his neck on the Day of Resurrection. If it has been a camel, he will bring it (over his neck) while it will be grunting, and if it has been a cow, he will bring it (over his neck), while it will be mooing; and if it has been a sheep, he will bring it (over his neck) while it will be bleeding." The Prophet ﷺ added, "I have preached you (Allah's Message)." Abu Humaid said, "Then Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his hands so high that we saw the whiteness of his armpits." (Using translation from Bukhārī 6636)
أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ اسْتَعْمَلَ عَامِلًا عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ فَجَاءَهُ الْعَامِلُ حِينَ فَرَغَ مِنْ عَمَلِهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذَا الَّذِي لَكُمْ وَهَذَا أُهْدِيَ لِي فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «فَهَلَّا قَعَدْتَ فِي بَيْتِ أَبِيكَ وَأُمِّكَ فَنَظَرْتَ أَيُهْدَى لَكَ أَمْ لَا؟» ثُمَّ قَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَشِيَّةً بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَتَشَهَّدَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَى اللَّهِ بِمَا هُوَ أَهْلُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمَّا بَعْدُ مَا بَالُ الْعَامِلِ نَسْتَعْمِلُهُ فَيَأْتِينَا فَيَقُولُ هَذَا مِنْ عَمَلِكُمْ وَهَذَا أُهْدِيَ لِي؟ فَهَلَّا قَعَدَ فِي بَيْتِ أَبِيهِ وَأُمِّهِ فَيَنْظُرَ هَلْ يُهْدَى لَهُ أَمْ لَا؟ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَا يَغُلُّ أَحَدُكُمْ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا إِلَّا جَاء بهَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَحْمِلُهُ عَلَى عُنُقِهِ إِنْ كَانَ بَعِيرًا جَاءَ بِهِ لَهُ رُغَاءٌ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ بَقَرَةً جَاءَ بِهَا لَهَا خُوَارٌ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ شَاةً جَاءَ بِهَا تَيْعَرُ فَقَدْ بَلَّغْتُ قَالَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى إِنَّا لَنَنْظُرُ إِلَى عُفْرَةِ إِبْطَيْهِ قَالَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ وَقَدْ سَمِعَ ذَلِكَ مَعِي مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ فَسَلُوهُ
3.32 [Machine] For him to retract from you willingly
٣۔٣٢ بَابُ لِيَرْجِعِ الْمُصَدِّقُ عَنْكُمْ وَهُوَ رَاضٍ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "When the one who confirms the truth comes to you, do not let him leave unless he is satisfied."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا جَاءَكُمُ الْمُصَدِّقُ فَلَا يَصْدُرَنَّ عَنْكُمْ إِلَّا وَهُوَ رَاضٍ»
This tradition has also been narrated on the authority of ‘A’ishah through a different chain. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 99)

3.33 [Machine] Dislike of responding to the question without anything
٣۔٣٣ بَابُ كَرَاهِيَةِ رَدِّ السَّائِلِ بِغَيْرِ شَيْءٍ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Muslim women, do not belittle any of your neighbors, even if it is a roasted sheep's trotter."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَا نِسَاءَ الْمُسْلِمَاتِ لَا تَحْقِرَنَّ إِحْدَاكُنَّ لِجَارَتِهَا وَلَوْ كُرَاعُ شَاةٍ مُحَرَّقٌ»
3.34 [Machine] Who submitted to something?
٣۔٣٤ بَابُ مَنْ أَسْلَمَ عَلَى شَيْءٍ
[Machine] The aunt of Al-Mughirah ibn Shu'bah was taken, so she went to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked about her aunt. He said, "O Sakhrah, when people embrace Islam, they must return their belongings and blood. Give it back to them." There was water for the people of Bani Sulaym, so they embraced Islam and asked him about that. He called me and said, "O Sakhrah, when people embrace Islam, they must return their belongings and blood. Give it back to them." So I returned it.
أُخِذَتْ عَمَّةُ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ فَقَدِمَتْ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَمَّتَهُ فَقَالَ «يَا صَخْرُ إِنَّ الْقَوْمَ إِذَا أَسْلَمُوا أَحْرَزُوا أَمْوَالَهُمْ وَدِمَاءَهُمْ فَادْفَعْهَا إِلَيْهِمْ» وَكَانَ مَاءٌ لِبَنِي سُلَيْمٍ فَأَسْلَمُوا فَسَأَلُوهُ ذَلِكَ فَدَعَانِي فَقَالَ «يَا صَخْرُ إِنَّ الْقَوْمَ إِذَا أَسْلَمُوا أَحْرَزُوا أَمْوَالَهُمْ وَدِمَاءَهُمْ فَادْفَعْهَا إِلَيْهِمْ» فَدَفَعْتُهَا

3.35 [Machine] The Virtue of Charity
٣۔٣٥ بَابٌ فِي فَضْلِ الصَّدَقَةِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "No person gives in charity from a good earning, and Allah accepts only what is good, except that Allah takes it in His Right Hand and nurtures it as one of you nurtures his foal or young camel until it becomes like a mountain."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا تَصَدَّقَ امْرُؤٌ بِصَدَقَةٍ مِنْ كَسْبٍ طَيِّبٍ وَلَا يَقْبَلُ اللَّهُ إِلَّا طَيِّبًا إِلَّا وَضَعَهَا حِينَ يَضَعُهَا فِي كَفِّ الرَّحْمَنِ وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَيُرَبِّي لِأَحَدِكُمُ التَّمْرَةَ كَمَا يُرَبِّي أَحَدُكُمْ فَلُوَّهُ أَوْ فَصِيلَهُ حَتَّى تَكُونَ مِثْلَ أُحُدٍ»
Charity does not decrease wealth, no one forgives another except that Allah increases his honor, and no one humbles himself for the sake of Allah except that Allah raises his status. (Using translation from Muslim 2588)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَا نَقَصَتْ صَدَقَةٌ مِنْ مَالٍ وَمَا زَادَ اللَّهُ عَبْدًا بِعَفْوٍ إِلَّا عِزًّا وَمَا تَوَاضَعَ أَحَدٌ لِلَّهِ إِلَّا رَفَعَهُ اللَّهُ»
3.36 [Machine] There is no charity in the factors of camels.
٣۔٣٦ بَابُ لَيْسَ فِي عَوَامِلِ الْإِبِلِ صَدَقَةٌ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: For forty pasturing camels, one she-camel in her third year is to be given. The camels are not to be separated from reckoning. He who pays zakat with the intention of getting reward will be rewarded. If anyone evades zakat, we shall take half the property from him as a due from the dues of our Lord, the Exalted. There is no share in it (zakat) of the descendants of Muhammad ﷺ. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1575)
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «فِي كُلِّ إِبِلٍ سَائِمَةٍ فِي كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ بِنْتُ لَبُونٍ لَا تُفَرَّقُ إِبِلٌ عَنْ حِسَابِهَا مَنْ أَعْطَاهَا مُؤْتَجِرًا بِهَا فَلَهُ أَجْرُهَا وَمَنْ مَنَعَهَا فَإِنَّا آخِذُوهَا وَشَطْرَ مَالِهِ عَزْمَةٌ مِنْ عَزَمَاتِ اللَّهِ لَا يَحِلُّ لِآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ»
3.37 [Machine] Who is eligible for charity?
٣۔٣٧ بَابُ مَنْ تَحِلُّ لَهُ الصَّدَقَةُ
I became a guarantor for a payment, and I came to Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him). He said: Wait till I receive the sadaqah and I shall order it to be given to you. He then said : Begging, Qabisah, is allowable only to one of three classes: a man who has become a guarantor for a payment to whom begging is allowed till he gets it, after which he must stop (begging); a man who has been stricken by a calamity and it destroys his property to whom begging is allowed till he gets what will support life (or he said, what will provide a reasonable subsistence); and a man who has been smitten by poverty, about whom three intelligent members of his people confirm by saying: So and so has been smitten by poverty, to such a person begging is allowed till be gets what will support life (or he said, what will provide a reasonable subsistence), after which he must stop (begging). Any other reason for begging, Qabisah, is forbidden, and one who engages in such consumes it as a thing which is forbidden. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1640)
تَحَمَّلْتُ بِحَمَالَةٍ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَسْأَلُهُ فِيهَا فَقَالَ «أَقِمْ يَا قَبِيصَةُ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنَا الصَّدَقَةُ فَنَأْمُرَ لَكَ بِهَا» ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا قَبِيصَةُ إِنَّ الْمَسْأَلَةَ لَا تَحِلُّ إِلَّا لِأَحَدِ ثَلَاثَةٍ رَجُلٍ تَحَمَّلَ حَمَالَةً فَحَلَّتْ لَهُ الْمَسْأَلَةُ فَسَأَلَ حَتَّى يُصِيبَهَا ثُمَّ يُمْسِكَ وَرَجُلٍ أَصَابَتْهُ جَائِحَةٌ فَاجْتَاحَتْ مَالَهُ فَحَلَّتْ لَهُ الْمَسْأَلَةُ فَسَأَلَ حَتَّى يُصِيبَ قِوَامًا مِنْ عَيْشٍ أَوْ قَالَ سِدَادًا مِنْ عَيْشٍ وَرَجُلٍ أَصَابَتْهُ فَاقَةٌ حَتَّى يَقُولَ ثَلَاثَةٌ مِنْ ذَوِي الْحِجَى مِنْ قَوْمِهِ قَدْ أَصَابَ فُلَانًا الْفَاقَةُ فَحَلَّتْ لَهُ الْمَسْأَلَةُ فَسَأَلَ حَتَّى يُصِيبَ قِوَامًا مِنْ عَيْشٍ أَوْ سِدَادًا مِنْ عَيْشٍ ثُمَّ يُمْسِكَ وَمَا سِوَاهُنَّ مِنَ الْمَسْأَلَةِ سُحْتٌ يَا قَبِيصَةُ يَأْكُلُهَا صَاحِبُهَا سُحْتًا
3.38 [Machine] Charity for relatives
٣۔٣٨ بَابُ الصَّدَقَةِ عَلَى الْقَرَابَةِ
[Machine] A man asked the Prophet ﷺ about which charity is best. He replied, "Charity given to one's relative who is in need."
أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنِ الصَّدَقَاتِ أَيُّهَا أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ «عَلَى ذِي الرَّحِمِ الْكَاشِحِ»
"Giving charity to a poor person is charity, and (giving) to a relative is two things, charity and upholding the ties of kinship." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2582)
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ الصَّدَقَةَ عَلَى الْمِسْكِينِ صَدَقَةٌ وَإِنَّهَا عَلَى ذِي الرَّحِمِ اثْنَتَانِ صَدَقَةٌ وَصِلَةٌ»
the Messenger of Allah said: “Charity given to the poor is charity, and that given to a relative is two things: charity and upholding the ties of kinship.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1844)
«الصَّدَقَةُ عَلَى الْمِسْكِينِ صَدَقَةٌ وَهِيَ عَلَى ذِي الرَّحِمِ اثْنَتَانِ صَدَقَةٌ وَصِلَةٌ»
