English translation

3079. It was narrated that 'Abdullāh bin Ma'qil said: "I sat with Ka'b bin 'Ujrah in the mosque and asked him about this Verse: 'He must pay a compensation of either fasting (three days) or giving charity (feeding six poor persons) or offering sacrifice (one sheep).'[1] Ka'b said: It was revealed concerning me, I had trouble with my head, so I was carried to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, with lice crawling on my face. He said: 'I did not think that you were suffering as much as I see. Do you have a sheep?' I said: 'No.' Then this Verse was revealed: "He must pay a Fidyah (ransom) of either fasting (three days) or giving Sadaqah (charity – feeding six poor persons) or offering sacrifice (one sheep)."[1] He said: 'Fasting is three days, charity is to be given to six poor persons, giving each one half a Sā' of food, and the sacrifice is a sheep.'" (Sahih)

Arabic text

3079 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْأَصْبَهَانِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَعْقِلٍ، قَالَ: قَعَدْتُ إِلَى كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ {فَفِدْيَةٌ مِنْ صِيَامٍ أَوْ صَدَقَةٍ أَوْ نُسُكٍ} [البقرة: 196] قَالَ كَعْبٌ: فِيَّ أُنْزِلَتْ كَانَ بِي أَذًى مِنْ رَأْسِي، فَحُمِلْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَنَاثَرُ عَلَى وَجْهِي، فَقَالَ: «مَا كُنْتُ أُرَى الْجُهْدَ بَلَغَ بِكَ مَا أَرَى، أَتَجِدُ شَاةً؟» قُلْتُ: لَا، قَالَ: فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {فَفِدْيَةٌ مِنْ صِيَامٍ، أَوْ صَدَقَةٍ، أَوْ نُسُكٍ} [البقرة: 196] قَالَ: «فَالصَّوْمُ ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ، وَالصَّدَقَةُ عَلَى سِتَّةِ مَسَاكِينَ، لِكُلِّ مِسْكِينٍ نِصْفُ صَاعٍ مِنْ طَعَامٍ، وَالنُّسُكُ شَاةٌ»
