Ibn Umar said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prescribed as zakat payable by slave and freeman, male and female, among the muslims on closing the fast of Ramadan one sa of dried dates or one sa’ of barley. (This tradition was read out byu Abdullah bin Maslamah to Malik)

Abdullah bin Umar said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺprescribed the sadaqah at the end of Ramadan one sa’. The narrator then transmitted the tradition like the one narrated by Malik. This version adds: “Young and old. He gave command that this should be paid before the people went out to prayers. ” Abu Dawud said: Abdullah al-Umari narrated it from Nafi through his chain: “on every Muslim. ” The version of Saeed al-Jumahi has: “Among the Muslims. ” The well-known version transmitted by Ubaid Allah does not mention the words “among the Muslims”

Ibn Umar said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prescribed sadaqah at the end of Ramadan one sa’ of barley and dried dates, payable by young and old freeman and slave. The version of Musa adds: “ male and female”. Abu Dawud said: the words “male and female” narrated, by Ayyub and Abdullah al Umar were narrated in their version on the authority of Nafi.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: The people during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to bring forth the sadaqah at the end of Ramadan when closing the fast one sa' of barley whose straw is removed, or of raisins. Abdullah said: When Umar (Allah be pleased with him) succeeded, and the wheat became abundant, Umar prescribed half a sa' of wheat instead of all these things.

Abdullah (bin Umar) said “The people then began to pay half a sa’ of wheat later on. The narrator said: Abdullah (bin Umar) use to pay dried dates as sadaqah one year the people of Madina lacked dried dates, hence he paid barley.

Abu Saeed Al-khudri said: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ lived among us, we use to bring forth zakat, on closing the fast of Ramadan one sa’ of grain or of cheese, or of barley, or of dried dates, or of raisens, payable by every young and old freeman and slave. We continued to pay this till mu-awayah came to perform Haj or Umra and he spoke to the people on the pulpit. What he said to the people was: I think that Mudds of the wheat of syrria is equivalent to one sa’ of dried dates. So the people adopted it. Abu Saeed said: But I continued to pay one sa’ of wheat as long as I lived on. Abu Dawud said: this tradition has also been transmitted by Abu Saeed through a different chain of narrators to the same effect. A man has narrated in this version from Ibn-Ulayyah one sa’ of wheat. But this version is not guarded.

The aforesaid tradition has also been transmitted by Abu Saeed through a different chain of narrators. This version adds: “Half a sa’ of wheat “. But this is a misunderstanding on the part of muawayah bin Hisham and of those who narrated from him.

Narrated Abu Saeed al-Khudri: I shall always pay one sa'. We used to pay during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ one sa' of dried dates or of barley, or of cheese, or of raisins. This is the version of Yahya. Sufyan added in his version: "or one sa' of flour. " The narrator Hamid (ibn Yahya) said: The people objected to this (addition); Sufyan then left it. Abu Dawud said: This addition is a misunderstanding on the part of Ibn Uyainah.
