6712. Narrated Al-Ju'aid bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān: As-Sā'ib bin Yazīd said, "The Ṣa' at the time of the Prophet ﷺ was equal to one Mudd plus one-third of a Mudd of your time, and then, it was increased during the caliphate of 'Umar bin 'Abdul-Azīz."

Arabic text

6712 - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا القَاسِمُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ المُزَنِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الجُعَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنِ السَّائِبِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ: «كَانَ الصَّاعُ عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُدًّا وَثُلُثًا بِمُدِّكُمُ اليَوْمَ، فَزِيدَ فِيهِ فِي زَمَنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ العَزِيزِ»
