12. Book of Zakāh
١٢۔ كِتَابُ الزَّكَاةِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded for charity, and a man came forward with some broken items. Sufyan, referring to the man, said, "He means wooden items." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "Who brought these?" No one used to bring anything unless it was attributed to the one who brought it. Then the verse was revealed, "And do not give the weak-minded your property, which Allah has made a means of sustenance for you" (Quran 2:267). The Messenger of Allah ﷺ also forbade using damaged items and the skin of the grape (as means of charity). Az-Zuhri said, "Two types of dates were used as charity."
أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِصَدَقَةِ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ هَذَا السَّخْلِ بِكَبَائِسَ فَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ يَعْنِي الشِّيصَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ جَاءَ بِهَذَا؟» وَكَانَ لَا يَجِيءُ أَحَدٌ بِشَيْءٍ إِلَّا نُسِبَ إِلَى الَّذِي جَلَبَهُ فَنَزَلَتْ {وَلَا تَيَمَّمُوا الْخَبِيثَ مِنْهُ تُنْفِقُونَ} [البقرة 267] قَالَ «وَنَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْجُعْرُورِ وَلَوْنِ الْحُبَيْقِ أَنْ يُؤْخَذَا فِي الصَّدَقَةِ» قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ «لَوْنَانِ مِنْ تَمْرِ الصَّدَقَةِ»
