English translation
1572. It was reported from Zuhair that Abū Ishāq narrated to them from ‘Āsim bin Ḍamrah, and Al-Hārith bin Al-A‘war, from ‘Ali, may Allāh be pleased with him that he said: Zuhair (one of the narrators) added: “I think it was from the Prophet ﷺ” — “Give one fourth of ten (2.5 %) — from every forty Dirhams, one Dirhams. And you do not have to give anything until two-hundred Dirhams are completed. So if there are two hundred Dirhams, five Dirhams need to be given. And whatever is more is thus (proportionally) measured. “With regards to sheep, for every forty sheep, one sheep must be given. And if there are only thirty-nine sheep, then nothing is due upon you...” and he continued elaborating on the Sadaqah on sheep similar to what was said by Az-Zuhri'. Then he said: "With regard to cows, then for every thirty, you must give one Tabi',[1] and for every forty, you must give one Musinnah.[2] And nothing is due on animals meant for manual labor. With regard to camels..." Then he mentioned the Sadaqah for them as was mentioned by Az-Zuhri' (no. 1570). He said: "...and for twenty-five (camels), five sheep must be given. If there is even one more, then a Bint Makhāḍ must be given, but if one is not available, then one Ibn Labūn may be given. This is the case for up to thirty-five (camels), but if there is even one more, then a Bint Labūn must be given, up to forty-five. And if there is even one more, then a Hiqqah — one which a stallion can breed with — is to be given, up to sixty..." then he quoted similar to the narration of Az-Zuhri'. And he said: "...so if there is even one more than this (meaning nine-one camels), then two Hiqqahs which stallions can breed with must be given, up to one-hundred and twenty (camels). And if there are more camels than that, then for every fifty, one Hiqqah is due. "And different (flocks) should not be joined together, nor should a combined (flock) be separated for fear of giving (extra) charity. “And no old sheep whose teeth have fallen off will be accepted in charity, nor any defective sheep, nor a male goat unless the one giving charity volunteers to do so. “With regards to produce, then a tenth is due on whatever is irrigated by (natural) streams or rainfall, and half of a tenth (5 %) is due on whatever is irrigated by bucket (manually).” In the narration of ‘Āšim and Al-Ĥārith (it is): “Charity is due every year” and Zuhair said: “I think he said: ‘One time.’” And in the narration of ‘Āšim: “If neither a Bint Makhāḍ among camels nor a Ibn Labūn, then ten Dirham or two sheep must be given.” (Daʿif)
