[Machine] "On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ, that he wrote to the people of Yemen in a letter that included the obligatory duties, the recommended practices, and the charitable donations. The letter was sent with 'Amr ibn Hazm, and I read it to the people of Yemen. This is a copy of it: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. From Muhammad, the Prophet, to Shurahbil ibn 'Abd Kulal, Harith ibn 'Abd Kulal, and Nu'aim ibn Kulal, also known as the people of Ru'ayn, Ma'aafir, and Hamdan. After that, your messenger has returned and you have been given one-fifth of the spoils of war, as well as the fixed amount that Allah has prescribed for the believers from the agricultural lands that are irrigated naturally or by artificial means, or that are situated on hills. The fixed amount should be paid when the crops reach five usq in quantity. And what is watered by rain or springs, the fixed amount should be paid when the crops reach half of the usq requirement. And for every five camels that graze free, one sheep should be given until they reach twenty-four. And if one more is added, a one-year-old offspring should be given. If it is not available, then a male lamb until they reach thirty-five. And if one more is added, a one-year-old offspring should be given until they reach fifty. And if one more is added, a she-camel that is ready to mate should be given until they reach sixty. And if one more is added, a leg should be given until they reach seventy-five. And if one more is added, a female lamb should be given until they reach ninety. And if one more is added, two leg joints should be given until they reach one hundred and twenty. And if one more is added, then three thighs should be given until they reach three hundred. And whatever exceeds that, for every one hundred sheep, one sheep should be given. And there should not be haramah, nor unhealthy animals, nor animals with injuries, nor the offspring of a goat, except out of the will of the donor. And it should not be collected from disunited groups, nor separated among combined groups, for fear of causing a decrease in charity. And whatever is taken from the two mixed substances, they should be separated equally. And for every forty counts of paper currency, five dirhams should be given. And for every additional forty dirhams, one dirham should be given. And there is nothing less than five dirhams. And for every forty dinars, one dinar should be given. Verily, sadaqah is not permissible for Muhammad nor for the family of Muhammad. Rather, it is zakah, by which they purify themselves and support the poor believers, in the cause of Allah and the stranded traveler. And there is nothing for the slave or his horse.
