English translation

1825. It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ enjoined Zakâtul-Fitr, one Sâ' of dates or one Sâ' of barley. Abdullâh said: The people made two Mudd (equal to half of a Sâ') of wheat as its equivalent. (Sahih)

Arabic text

1825 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ الْمِصْرِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، «أَمَرَ بِزَكَاةِ الْفِطْرِ صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ، أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ» قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: «فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ عِدْلَهُ مُدَّيْنِ مِنْ حِنْطَةٍ»

Commentary

a. Sâ' is a weight volume measurement. People's usual daily food should be given in Sadaqatul-Fitr by measuring a Sâ'. b. A Sâ' is approximately equal to two and a half kilos. c. 'Abdullâh bin 'Umar ﷺ did not agree to the juristic opinion that half a Sâ' of wheat is equal to a Sâ' of dry dates. d. Half a Sâ' of wheat is enough as Sadaqatul-Fitr according to the opinion of Mu'âwiyah ؓ, as follows in Hadith 1829.
