English

[2285] 19 – ( … ) 'Iyâd bin 'Abdullâh bin Sa'd bin Abü Sarh narrated that he heard Abü Sa'eed Al-hudrI say: "While the Messenger of Allah was among us, we would pay Zakât A1-Fitr, on behalf of everyone; young and old, free and slave, of three types: A Sâ' of dates, a Sâ' of cottage cheese, or a Sâ' of barley. We continued to pay it like that until Mu'âwiyah came, and he thought that two Mudd of wheat were equivalent to a â' of dates." Abü Sa'eed said: "AS for me, I will continue to pay it like that."
